At Lit Hub Mills tagged seven novels featuring some of her favorite fictional sisters. One title on the list:
Today Will Be Different by Maria SempleRead about another novel on the list.
I love all of Maria Semple’s books—the new Go Gentle is completely amazing. But the sisterhood story at the heart of Today Will Be Different must be one of the most moving. Over the course of the one day setting, we piece together narrator Eleanor Flood’s backstory—who is this mysterious sister her own son does not know about? Why are they estranged? And what is the significance of this poignant graphic novel-within-a-novel ‘The Flood Sisters’? Being by Maria Semple, it’s about so, so much else, and also incredibly funny alongside the tears.
