The Chicken Sisters

This was a feel-good read about a 3-generation rivalry between two sisters in a small town involving fried chicken. (You cannot go wrong with southern food in a novel, I’m just saying.)

What I thoroughly enjoyed about this book was how the plot got thicker and thicker, revealing the backstory throughout the story in a way that made me #TeamAmanda one minute and #TeamMae the next. I like digging deep into a character’s life, and this one did so in a way that made me sympathetic to both sisters, rooting for their reunion until the very end.

I’m trying my… show more.

This is an amazing story about sisters, family secrets, reality shows, and small towns.

The two restaurants, Chicken Mimi’s and Chicken Frannie’s had me craving fried chicken so much that my husband had to make a batch because I wouldn't shut up about the book.

I loved everything about this book: the setting, the reality show, each sister's story of reinvention, their relationship with their mother, and the constant battle between the two. It was so fun seeing how they reacted to each other and all the misunderstandings getting cleared up by the end.
