The Seven Sisters series is loosely based on the mythology of the star constellation known as the Pleiades, or more commonly, the Seven Sisters. The books follow the exploits of a group of adopted siblings who, following the death of their father, follow the clues he left them, that would enable them to find their birth families. These clues take them to different places around the world and lead them to families, and situations that they mostly would never have expected to find. Each novel is stand alone, and it’s not at all necessary to read the complete series, but I would recommend that they each be read, starting with #1.

There are common themes that run through all Seven Sisters books with variations, depending on the personal story of each sister, and their birth background.

The Moon Sister – Seven Sister Series #5

The Moon Sister is the fifth book in the Seven Sisters series by Lucinda Riley. The story of the fifth sister goes from the beauty of the remote Scottish Highlands to the mysterious gypsy caves of Granada, Spain, just as the civil war is throwing the country into chaos. This is the story of two amazing women, one a wildlife consultant and the other, a world acclaimed flamenco dancer. Both girls are searching for their truth and their beginnings.

My Thoughts

I have always loved a door stop size family saga, and The Seven Sisters, certainly is doorstop size and is also a breathtaking family saga. Apart from being unputdownable, I found these books to be unpredictable and at times devastating. Each book, features great examples of strong and remarkable female characters who are very easy to fall in love with and cheer for.

Lucinda Riley’s writing takes readers on an emotional journey, uniting family, solving a family mystery, and history.
