I absoutely loved this book. At first I was hesitant to read it from the way it started out but as I kept with it I felt really drawn to the characters. I especially loved Penny's attitude and that of her aunt. Sharon's character appealed to the serious side of me. We all need Sisterchicks in our lives--looking forward to the next in the series!

Everyone who has a close woman friend can relate to this book. A charming story & makes you want to take a trip with your best friend. Sometimes funny, you will be laughing out loud & sometimes sad, but a real good story. Ms Gunn writes so well makes you feel like you know the characters. A good feel good book. Recommended for book clubs. You won't be sorry.
I have to say that I MOSTLY enjoyed this book. It was a cute story, but it was very short on the spiritual meaning. I didn't think it was too different than many of the secular books around. Compared to the Yada Yada books, for example, this book was a spiritual lightweight. However, as I said, it was a cute story, and I'd say it'd be fun to read after a hard day or on vacation.

Sharon has lived calmly in Chinook Springs, Washington, her entire life. All that changes when her best friend of twenty years, Penny, takes an impulsive trip to seek out her only living relatives in Finland -- and brings Sharon with her. The land of reindeer and saunas holds infinite varieties of zaniness for these two unlikely friends -- Sharon is a quiet mother of four and Penny was a motorcycle mama before she came to Christ -- who return home with a new view of God, a new zest for life, and a big impact on those around them for decades to come.
Get set for adventure as the sisterchicks drive, float, or fly off to faraway placesâ€"exploring new territory and delighting in the soul ties that forever bind their hearts.

Meet unlikely best friends Sharon, quiet mother of four, and Penny, former flower child/motorcycle mama. Connected as young moms, their twenty-year friendship is about to take a surprising leap! Penny hatches plans for a “post-kids” trip to seek out her only living relativesâ€"somewhere in far-off Finland.
Oh, Penny Girl, what have you done?
The land of reindeer, Finnish saunas, and starry, starry nights holds infinite promise for the free-flying sisterchicks, who feel their hearts fill with a new zest for living…and a fresh view of the One who flung the galaxies across the heavens!
This is a story about two very good friends who go on a adventure. t I wish to be able to just say ok and go for it.
