Three thirty-three year old sisters shared a womb and a family but still sibling rivalry can get the best of them. An interesting stylistic technique is that some of the novel is told through the voice of strangers observing the three women.

I really enjoyed this book about a set of triplets and their problems. Well it is mentioned as a family comedy it deals with some serious issues while entertaining at the same time. I enjoyed Liane Moriarty other book 'The Last Anniversary' but I think this one was a bit better. The story lines flowed and the characters were well developed. Overall good - yet fast - read. Carol

Oh! I loved this book! It has been such a long time since I have read a "chick lit" book that I genuinely thought was well-written, well-plotted and filled with likable characters (all in all was actually a good book, and not just entertaining), and this one certainly git the bill! The premise - one tumultuous year in the lives of one set of triplets - was unique. And really, these sisters were just great! Some of the twin stories reminded me of Sweet Valley, which was pleasant. I just adored this book! It made me giggle and tear-up, and I literally could not put it down! I read it all in one sitting, staying up WAY too late to finish it. I also liked the structure of alternating POVs, and the _When Harry Met Sally_-like interludes of strangers' memories of encountering the triplets. I am looking forward to reading Moriarty's other books!

This story was very well written about the 33 year-old Kettle triplets. Their characters well very well-developed. Lyn was very organized, Kat has marital problems and Gemma is free spirited and leaves relationships at the 6 month point. It deals mostly with their sibling rivalry and their uniques experiences. It is filled with lots of laugh-out-loud moments but there are some serious situations that they need to deal with also. I loved The Husband's Secret by this author and look forward to reading another of her books. I highly recommend this book If you like chick-lit that is very entertaining.

This is the first, I believe of fLiane Moriarty's novels. While I enjoyed this enough, she improved with the subsequent ventures. This is a story of three (triplets!) sisters, all a bit nutty, smart and complicated. Anyone with sisters can probably relate to the drama surrounding them and the family.
