Summary

Three sisters, one birthday, one little problem...

The three Kettle sisters have had a mortifying mishap. Their raucous, champagne-soaked birthday dinner has come to an abrupt end following a violent argument and an emergency dash to the hospital.

So who started it this time? Was it angry, hurt Cat, still recovering from the 'night of the spaghetti'? Was it Lyn, so serenely successful, at least on the outside? Or was it quirky, dreamy Gemma, the sister who can't keep a secret except for the most important one of all?

Critic reviews

"I adored Three Wishes...fresh, very, very funny...also intelligent and unsentimental about family dynamics." (Marian Keyes)

Compulsive!

Where does Three Wishes rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

This is the second of Liane Moriarty's books I've listened to and they have both been so completely absorbing that you feel as if you are part of the story. She writes about family in such an intimate way that you become a part of the family.

Who was your favorite character and why?

There are three sisters (triplets) in the story and they are all compelling but Gemma is particularly interesting and inspires a lot of compassion and admiration.

Which scene did you most enjoy?

The story revolves around a scene in which the sisters have a spectacular row in a public place, which is both devastating and hysterical. The story is full of moments when you take a sharp intake of breath at the awful implications of what the family members say to each other.

If you made a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?

Family, they just might kill you!

One of the best

I've enjoyed all the Liane Moriraty books that I've listened to, having heard about 5 of them now. I think this one has been my favourite. I found it funny and touching and being the mother of multiples I found myself nodding along in agreement to certain aspects. I love Caroline Lee's narration, it's always superb and there's something very soothing about her voice. Great stuff, thanks!

My favourite book

Officially the funniest book ever. I love it. Will always go back to it. The narrator makes it even better. I returned this book once, just as well I gave it another chance as now it is my favourite.

Wonderful all round

This is the third book by LM I have read. And it is another absolute triumph. Amusing but complex story of intertwined lives. The narration is superb and compliments and amplifies the quality of the writing.

great fun Aussie story

What did you like best about Three Wishes? What did you like least?

This story of triplets facing some major crises in their lives is amusingly written and engaging. Personally I didn't like the voice of the person reading it but that didn't prevent me finishing it.

What did you like best about this story?

Funny characters. Women dealing with crises and moving on in their lives.

What three words best describe Caroline Lee’s performance?

Annoying harsh voice

If this book were a film would you go see it?

Yes

Another excellent story by Moriarty

I’ve read a few Liane Moriarty books and this one does not disappoint! She has an incredible way of getting readers hooked onto her stories from the very beginning! Fantastic narrative brings this book to life!
