What My Sister Remembered

By Marilyn Sachs

Molly and her sister were raised by different families after their parents died in a car crash. After eight years apart, Beth comes to visit and claims to have a secret memory about their past.

And she’s fearful of her sister’s “secret.” Juvenile/Young Adult Fiction by Marilyn Sachs

Reviews for What My Sister Remembered

[heather19_1 · Rating: 3 out of 5 stars]

*possible spoilers*Well, this wasn't the best book in the world, but it was interesting anyway. I think Molly either was in denial, or maybe was simply too young/naive to understand... But it was SO obvious that there was something really really huge that had happened, and the tension between Beth and Molly's mom, and Beth's anger toward Molly's mom, was not simply caused by jealousy that Beth had "picked them over us". There was sooooo much more to it then that, and I would've liked the book better if it had gone into more detail and really explained more of what had happened back then. I mean, the Big Secret doesn't even come out until like 8 pages before the end of the book. I was left with a feeling that the buildup was drawn-out and sometimes stupid, and then the climax was a cop-out, not because of what the secret was, but because of how the writer handled it.
