Sisters ... no way! by Siobhán Parkinson

Tour dates: October 13th - October 19th

Age/Genre: YA/Fairy Tale Retelling

Format(s): eBooks

Cindy, a with-it and cynical young teen, still traumatised by her mother's recent death, is appalled when her father falls in love with one of her teachers, a woman with two teenage daughters of her own. Surely he can't be serious? She cannot imagine a worse fate than having a teacher as her stepmother, and as for the two prissy girls - she is never going to call them sisters ... no way!

But, if Cindy dislikes her prospective stepsisters, they think she is an absolute horror - spoiled, arrogant and atrociously rude to them and their mother when they visit her house. Whatever about their mother marrying again, they can't imagine being landed with Cindy as a sister ... no way!

But the parents are going to marry, and the girls are going to be family, like it or not. So who gives in? Is there any room for compromise? Will the unlikely trio of stepsisters ever change their minds about each other?

TWO GREAT BOOKS IN ONE

In a unique feature the girls' stories are told in two separate back-to-back books, one for Cindy and the other for Ashling and Alva. The reader can choose which story to begin with, getting a very different viewpoint on the girls depending on whose side of the story they read first.

Dostoevsky meets 1984 in this Soviet-inspired work of literary fiction exploring a totalitarian society driven to the brink.

Following an early release, young political prisoner Alfie flees his provincial village for the ruthless capital of an authoritarian state. With help from an old friend, Alfie lands a job as a waiter at an exclusive members’ club. There the political elite flaunt their excesses, and Alfie’s new surroundings soon launch him into hypocrisies of his own.

Dogged by his past and unable to face who he’s become, Alfie stumbles into an aging professor and forms a friendship over cheap beer and banned literature. A relic of an old world, the professor remembers life before the once-lauded revolution that put the current regime in place.

Fueled by free thought, Alfie's inner turmoil only deepens, until an irreversible decision sets events in motion that could seal not only his fate, but the fate of the entire nation.
