Nancy Jensen's The Sisters
This novel chronicles two sisters and their descendents from the late 1920s--when the sisters are separated by an annoying miscommunication--through the late 2000s. Pretty solid characters, though not all are fleshed out as much as they could be (particularly social climbing daughter Alma). And I think the last part was supposed to be a surprise but it was something I assumed from very early on, which didn't make for a compelling resolution. This book was kind of a downer for something that seems like women's lit. Maybe for the Jodi Picoult fans? B.
