Juliet Milagros Palante is leaving the Bronx and headed to Portland, Oregon. She just came out to her family and isn't sure if her mom will ever speak to her again. But Juliet has a plan, sort of, one that's going to help her figure out this whole "Puerto Rican lesbian" thing. She's interning with the author of her favorite book: Harlowe Brisbane, the ultimate authority on feminism, women's bodies, and other gay-sounding stuff. Will Juliet be able to figure out her life over the course of one magical summer? Find out.

I've loved the author's work at Autostraddle for a while, but I was still surprised by the strength and beauty of this novel. I would highly recommend it for anyone who loves a great coming-of-age story, but it's an absolute must-read for those of us who are, were, or care about queer brown kids.

The beloved New York Times best seller from acclaimed author Eleanor Brown about three sisters who love each other, but just don't happen to like each other very much. Three sisters have returned to their childhood home, reuniting the eccentric Andreas family. Here, books are a passion (there is no problem a library card can't solve) and TV is something other people watch. Their father - a professor of Shakespeare who speaks almost exclusively in verse - named them after the Bard's heroines. It's a lot to live up to.

What did you love best about The Weird Sisters?
the craftsmanship of this novel is amazing. the first person plural narration is so perfect for this story/these sisters. The story was well paced and very well balanced between the sisters' sub plots.
What was one of the most memorable moments of The Weird Sisters?
Those few moments when the three weird sisters are actually on the same wavelength really do invoke a kind of magic! especially when brown throws in textual mirrors to amplify the effect.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
no. i needed a little time to settle in to this one. . . especially the narration.
Any additional comments?
give it a shot!
