I did not finish this book, despite being drawn to the life and plight of the daughters of Jewish immigrants who had fled Poland from pogroms in the late nineteenth or early twentieth century; my own Jewish grandparents came to the United States under similar circumstances.

The story was moderately engaging. Regina, the eldest daughter, wins a full scholarship to USC after winning a math contest, only to have most of it ripped away when the two other girls competing in the same contest accuse her, falsely, of cheating. Here antisemitism rears its ugly head. And the after effects, with Regina being badmouthed by political and hate-filled gossip, throughout Los Angeles. Obviously, people can be very mean spirited.

Despite this setback, Regina sets out to find employment, to be rebuffed at every turn as soon as any potential employer or school hears her name. So, she changes it, vowing, with her sisters, to seek vengeance.

At about the halfway point, this zeal for vengeance, coupled with an extremely bad writing style, were enough for me. I know others liked the book. Just not for me.

I received this book as an ARC from the publisher via NetGalley.

If you are looking for a book that follows the adventures of strong women then this is the book for you! I have nevwr eead anything by this author before so it was a very interesting experience.
I received an arc copy from Netgalley and all opinions are of my own.

Revenge of the Sisters: A Tale of Retribution is written in a third-person POV that is common of the genre.

This is the story of Regina as a single mom of four in California, after moving from Chicago. She loses her daughters due to lack of resources and lack of support. We get to follow the three daughters. They end up in a school together where they can advance through their skills and talents, each unique. Each facing their own hindrances.

I enjoyed getting to watch Dorothy, Josephine, and Rose all find their own successes and revenge. These reads are always emotional and hard for me, but they are a change to my usual romance reads and sometimes the change of pace is just what I need.
