Divine Secrets of the YA-YA Sisterhood (Revised)
Divine Secrets of the YA-YA Sisterhood (Revised) | Rebecca Wells
In 1932, Viv and the Ya-Yas were disqualified from a Shirley Temple look-alike contest for unladylike behaviour. Many years later, they're bucking seventy and still making waves.

It's never a bad time for a Ya-Ya #reread. The characters are so complex and dynamic, and the language is rich and beautiful. Nothing like it! #southernfiction

TheBookHippie I agree I adore it! 1y

I totally loved this book! Well written and well plotted, it‘s about a mother daughter journey into finding each other, from the past to the present time, through ups and downs, mental breakdown and addiction. I‘ve enjoyed it very much! This is my pick for May‘s #bookspin #bookspinbingo @TheAromaofBooks

marleed Oh, I read this years ago - in a time when I felt accomplished if I read just one adult book for me in a season. But I think a result of just reading a few books a year was that I considered them for months afterwards - and still remember them today. This was one of this books! 4y
TheAromaofBooks Woohoo!! 4y
SusanLee @marleed I know what you mean! 4y

Ok so I *think* I might understand why so many people liked this book...however, for reasons similar to Crawdads, it just wasn't for me. Also, yikes 1990s views...

wideeyedreader @KarenUK I haven‘t seen the movie, but I‘m not a huge fan of the book. It might be worth a read though! 5y

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Definitely not a favorite—the story was okay, but I didn‘t like most of the characters much, and I thought the writing was simplistic and over-flowery.

This book was a nice quick listen, similar to the movie, but with some differing details. I started it on my 45 min commute and finished it while deep cleaning my house last night #book48 #2018 #yearofbooks #bookworm

This one has been on my TBR for a while. I love the movie but expect the book will be so much better! Diving in and drinking some wine. 😊🍷♥️

KathyWheeler I loved this book. It‘s set where I used to live and it‘s well told. I didn‘t care for the books that came before or after it nearly as much. 7y
ItsAngel @KathyWheeler I honestly didn‘t even know it was a series. I just know I love the movie so I‘ve wanted to read it for that reason. 😬 7y
KathyWheeler @ItsAngel I don‘t know that I‘d really call it a series. The books just feature some of the same characters, but they aren‘t really connected. 7y

I moved in with my best friend's family when I was in high school, for all intents and purposes we are sisters. This is one of our favorite books! We read.it together when we were in 10th grade, she even named her daughter Vivian, or Vivi. And this is book is a perfect example of how family is more than blood. #siblings #aprilbookshowers @RealLifeReading

I thought the book was bad until some friends dragged me to the dreadful movie.
