Review:

"What Happened to My Sister:  A Novel" by Elizabeth Flock was  a follow up from Ms. Flock first book 'Me & Emma'... which was also  a good dialogue and a very interesting  read.  Be ready for many twist and turns because this is what you will get from "What Happened to My Sister."  The reading in a adult and child's voice was really a good affect on the read.

From Toast, North Carolina...to Hendersonville, North Carolina...then finally
to Hartsville, North Carolina.  Carrie(a young neglected and abused girl) and
her mother were making a new start. This is where Carrie meets a good friend named Cricket who has lost a sister too. Now Carrie and Cricket are inseparable.  Carrie is now thinking less of her sister, Emma. What will come of these two nine year old girls?  "When these two meet, their world's expand till it's bursting, changing who they are, and how they see the world they exist in."   This is simply beautiful story. Crickets' mom...Honor Chaplin Ford is "a 30-plus female who has suffered the loss of her daughter, her job and her marriage. Their lives are brought together on the 3rd anniversary of Honor's daughter' death. Thus, begins the healing and salvation they both need."   This is the time that I will say that you must pick up this wonderful read..."What Happened to My Sister" to find out just what the big secret is and seeing this process of healing in that questions will be answered and the end will all be  well for Carrie.

The characters were simply off the chart...from Carrie(Caroline), (her mom-Libby), Richard, Cricket(Hannah), Mrs.Honor Chaplin Ford, Eddie, Misty Rae, Janey, Mr. & Mrs.
Hap Burdock, Hunter,Lucy, Uncle Charles, to Mr. Wilson and I am sure I have left someone out...so you will have to pick up this excellent read and find out. Also in this read find out how to cure hiccups...with "Levon Hiccups Remedy."


If you are in for a good fiction read you have come to the right place...for a very interesting read and Yes I would recommend "What Happened to My Sister: A Novel" as a excellent read.
