I was given an ARC from NetGalley for giving an honest review.

How can you say you enjoyed a book about this horrible time in history.? You get to know the history and the people that had to go through this awful time but they give us hope too. These three sisters gives us insight on what they endured and how they survived and how their life continued after their ordeal.

This book was so well written, as were the previous books by this author, the the characters came to life in a way that you wanted to be there to help them, love them, hug them.

If you like historical novels, or even if you don’t, you need to read this book. A bit of a history lesson, that I apparently missed the real significance of. Yes I did know about WWII, Hitler etal and the horrendous things that were done but never put myself in their shoes. This book makes me appreciate the life I have and I am glad that these 3 sisters were able to find happiness after their horrible start in life. We all should have their courage.

Thank you St. Martin's Press and NetGalley for this awesome story!

Three Sisters is a heartbreaking novel! I devoured this book in two sittings. Couldn't get out of this phenomenal book!
The fact that this is based on real people is truly sad. My heart broke for these ladies as to what they went through. The courage they had is really remarkable in every way!
And how Morris put this into words had !e completely under a spell.
This book could be an awesome and great lesson for older kids in school. I feel they could learn alot from this story!

Thank you again for the amazing opportunity to read this outstanding book.

Heather Morris won my heart with her first two masterpieces, The Tattooist of Auschwitz and Cilka's Journey. She has now forever secured her spot as one of my favorite authors with her tale of The Three Sisters.

This beautiful story begins with a promise that three very young girls make to their ill father. The sisters agree to always take care of one another. This loyalty is put to the most excruciating of tests when two of the sisters are sent to a concentration camp while the third is temporarily saved by a kind doctor. The atrocities that the sisters are forced to endure are heart wrenching, yet Heather Morris somehow keeps her readers feeling optimistic, thanks to the incredible strength and bravery of the sisters.

I received an ARC of this novel from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.

Beautifully written novel chronicling the lives of three sisters who survived a concentration camp and kept their promise to their beloved father to always take care of each other.

What a powerful read! This story is blooming with love, strength, bravery, and the intense bond of family. This was such a compelling read, and it stayed with me after I would put it down. These sisters made their way into my heart and I will not forget them anytime soon.

Three Sisters
By Heather Morris

I am both honored and grateful to have received my Advanced Reader's Copy of Heather Morris's new compelling and devastatingly heartbreaking rendition called "THREE SISTERS." I was interested in obtaining this true and factual account having read and loved her first book called "THE TATTOOIST OF AUSCHWITZ." Although at times this true account was difficult and painful to read, I knew I was getting a deeply researched and an accurate account of an inspirational family who suffered unimaginable horrors of surviving day to day life in Auschwitz. It is not a spoiler to reveal that these brave three sister's survived because it states this fact on the synopsis. I read this because we must never forget the excruciating suffering of six-million Jewish people whose only crime was their ethnicity or race deemed inferior to the vile dictator Hitler.

During the current and recent events in the United States this story might have been harder to read because of the current politics and the unprecedented events that this country has inherited from a former politician who has divided our country and reminds me of Hitler in his actions.

"Three Sisters," tells the story of Cibi, Magda and Livi who suffered horrendous challenges of loss and their survival of Auschwitz. Their father told them as young children that they must promise him that no matter what they must always stick together. This pact between these three resilient youths I believe helped them not to give up and possibly saved their lives when at times they could of easily perished.

What I loved about the book is that it is historically accurate and well written. I do admit that it was painful at times but I knew that this story was important. I loved that Heather Morris hears the first hand accounts of these remarkable women by getting to know them and their offspring. I also loved the willpower of these three strong women and their great love for each other and humanity. They helped each other survive and they didn't let the cruelties of the Nazi's and other antisemitic people win or take more from them. The vile actions that these three sisters overcame is inspiring and gives me hope that I can overcome the much less adversities that I am enduring in my personal life currently.

I also loved how Lale from the first book who was the tattooist makes a cameo appearance. His kindness will never be forgotten by me as well as the plight of these three lovable sisters. This is a book I highly recommend reading for the tale is also unforgettable and one that will stay with me forever.

The Three Sisters is part of a trilogy by Heather Norris. It is the story of 3 Jewish sisters in Europe and begins in 1942. The sisters are very close. They made a promise to their father that they would always be together. Sadly, they were separated during the war. They eventually were reunited and found themselves as the surviving members of their family.
It is a wonderful story of how they spent their lives / always keeping the promise they made so long ago.

I absolutely loved this book. Kept me interested throughout. Would definitely recommend this book to anyone.

Livia, Magda, and Cibi are as close as sisters can be. They have made a promise to their father before his death that they would always stay together and look after each other. That promise will be tested sooner than they know.

While Magda is hospitalized to try to keep her safe from the Nazis, the youngest sister Livi is ordered to "work for the Nazis" and Cibi goes with her, keeping her promise to her father. Their trip finds them at Auschwitz where they deal with the horrors of watching people die and learning how to get through the day-to-day of a concentration camp. Two years later, the sisters are reunited in Auschwitz and have each other to lean on during the worst times. As the Germans face a certain defeat, prisoners are taken on a death march where they escape before the Nazis can kill them.

After World War II has ended, the sisters are settled in Slovakia. They restart their lives there until Livi decides that she want to head to Israel to set up a new home. Magda makes the trip with her with Cibi and her family following shortly. The sisters end up married and raising their children in Israel. The epilogue shows all the sisters and their families in America and having a celebration where they remember their promise to their father knowing that they have kept it.

I have read Morris' other books in this series, The Tattooist of Auschwitz and Cilka's Journey. While Lale, the tattooist, is noted briefly in this story he does not play a large part. This is a historical fiction with a touch of biography as the author is relaying actual events in the sister's lives. Heather Morris takes the time to devote a section to the book to let us know where the characters in the story ended up.

Thanks Netgalley for allowing me to read this book. Sisters who endured what no children should have to. Sisters who managed to survive auschwitz. This book both saddened and amazed me with everything that the girls overcame.

I wish to thank NetGalley and St. Martin’s Press Publishers for allowing me to read an advanced copy of this book. I have voluntarily read and reviewed it. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

This is a marvelous telling of a very dark and sad time for the world. It is the story of three Jewish sisters who promised their father that they would stay together no matter what. The time period is during World War II and the Jews were rounded up and taken to concentration camps. The way the story unfolds you follow the girls as they go through all the losses one can imagine and yet had the strength somehow to survive together. They are sent to both Birkenau and Auschwitz. You learn the horrors of both places. The book was inspired by true stories of survivors and you will feel like you are in the prison camps with the girls it is so painstakingly accurate. Your heart breaks for them at their loses and the starvation they endured. And, so much more.

After the war the sisters find their way to new lives beginning again in a new place. For those who try to say that the Holocaust never happened I suggest you read this book to try and understand some of what the prisoners endured.

This book is a history lesson you will long remember. Heather is a great author and I applaud her on this work

This was such an amazingly powerful story about three Jewish sisters in the time of Hitler's reign of terror. The bond and the strength that the sisters have to endure such horrendous abuse is amazing to me. I appreciate how the author gives a taste of the abuse that was experienced by the Jewish people but doesn't overwhelm the reader with it. This is a must read for everyone to understand a time in our history that was so awful but yet people survived and persevered despite the tragedies that they experienced. I particularly enjoyed everything in the author's note as well--also a must read!

Thanks so much to netgalley and the publisher for the arc. The opinions are my own.

Three Sisters is a moving story, based on the real-life experiences of Cibi, Magda, and Livia Meller, who at a young age promised their father they would always take care of eachother. And, they did - through their horrifying experiences at Auschwitz/Birkenau and thereafter as they moved to Israel, when it was first recognized as a country.

Heather Morris has become known for her Holocaust survivor stories, and this one is no different She describes the horrors and profound guilt experienced by these three women, as well as the undying bond and vindication they experience as they create lives and families of their own in Israel.

Her writing is unique in that she writes with minimal description, almost as if she is reciting a story which contains dialogue. More description would better elicit the sentiments she tries to create. Furthermore, while the sisters' experiences in Israel are important to show how life moves on, I did find that it dragged on and could have been cut after they are united again in.Israel.

Overall, it is a moving story that would definitely appeal to those who read holocaust literature, or to those who strongly connect with family bonds that persever despite the most horrible of circumstances.

WWII setting for pact between 3 Jewish sisters which is difficult to keep. Most of book focuses on concentration camp life which is depressing and sad. Story line ends in Israel with good closure. Not a book that I would recommend because no real mystery or romance. Too much focus on daily prison life.

This is by the same author who wrote the Tatooist of Auschwitz and Cilka’s Journey. It’s the third in her series. They are all connected because everyone was there at the same time, the Tatooist did their numbers and the woman he ended up marrying lived in the same village as one of the sisters. The story of Cilka is probably more historical fiction than the others as not much is known about her after she leaves the camp. She was sent to a Russian prison camp because she was accused of aiding and abetting the nazis while a prisoner there but not much else is known. Anyway, while I did like this book I didn’t think it was quite as good as the first two. A bit slow at times, I got a little bored, especially towards the ending. But it still is a testament to the atrocities that occurred during the Holocaust.

This author, yet again, created a masterpiece! She tells the stories of these survivors in such a way that while the pain comes through, the love and friendship does as well. Out of her three books, this is the one I liked most so far. There were many laughs and tears throughout reading and at the end, I was satisfied with the heartwarming, albeit heartbreaking, story that she told.

An incredible story of the lives of three sisters and their families during and after World War Two is one not to be missed There are many historical fiction books written about Holocaust survivors, but this is an unbelievably true story which is exceptional. You have to read it.

This was a good book about the holocaust I highly recommend it it goes with the girls with the chica books it goes with and and a tattoo artist of and the tattoo artist

Heartbreaking yet uplifting. These three sisters promised to stay together and the trials they endured st Auschwitz were horrendous. It is difficult to read but I applaud their bravery and their love for each other.
I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

This is the third book in the Auschwitz series by Heather Morris and I have loved and cried and mourned through every single one of the books. I will say that of the three I found the writing style of Three Sisters to be the least compelling, which made it a little difficult to be fully immersed in the story, especially in the first half of the book. I felt a bit like I was kept at arm's length from the sisters. However knowing what we know about Auschwitz perhaps it's better to have some sort of distance in cases such as this. I really love this book and found the sisters resilience just awe inspiring and incredible.
