As elderly women, sisters Twiss and Milly live alone in the house where they grew up in Spring Green, Wis. They spend their days tending to injured birds and roaming their land, lost in memories. For Milly, there is the constant reminder of what could have been. Twiss spent her childhood happily trailing behind their golf-pro father, but Milly dreamed about a family and children that never happened. There was hope for a young Milly, until an accident strips their father of his golfing abilities and sets in motion a series of events that rips apart the already unstable family.

Bird Sisters submitted by pandangel12 on June 24, 2011, 2:48pm A quirky book on two sisters that are unalike, but also amusing :)

Listened to Audiobook submitted by sushai on July 22, 2019, 9:00am I liked the book but think I should have read it rather than listened to the audio version because I was distracted by the narrator's voice, especially the way she tried to sound like different characters. It's a simple family story, not that any families are simple, and I do appreciate the way the author makes the characters three-dimensional. I was a little disappointed in some predictable twists, but all-in-all, it was still a good read.
