Description
“Moriarty’s first novel, written with wisdom, humor, and sincerity, is an honest look at sisters who have a bond stronger than anything life throws their way.” — Booklist
The funny, heartwarming, and completely charming first novel from Liane Moriarty, the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Nine Perfect Strangers and Big Little Lies.
Lyn, Cat, and Gemma Kettle, beautiful thirty-three-year-old triplets, seem to attract attention everywhere they go. Together, laughter, drama, and mayhem follow them, but apart, each is dealing with her own share of ups and downs.
Lyn has organized her life into one big checklist, Cat has just learned a startling secret about her marriage, and Gemma, who bolts every time a relationship hits the six-month mark, holds out hope for lasting love.
In this wise, witty, and hilarious novel, we follow the Kettle sisters through their tumultuous thirty-third year as they deal with sibling rivalry and secrets, revelations and relationships, unfaithful husbands and unthinkable decisions, and the fabulous, frustrating life of forever being part of a trio.

Loved this book!
5By NickelodemanI enjoyed getting to know this family so much that I was surprised and disappointed when I reached the end. I felt like I was living their life along with them and I was so sorry that I didn’t get to continue doing so. This is a fun, heartfelt, lovely read.Just lovely
5By sheskraftyThis is such a delightful story of three sisters and their family. I thoroughly enjoyed the book and especially the sidebar anecdotes from strangers who observed them over the years. Definitely a worthwhile read!Great title for a Triplet story.
5By CA-memaFunny, light, fun. I always wished I was a twin or a triplet‼️‼️I am now totally convinced I should have been. This delightful book would be a fabulous beach read, summer cabin read, or winter chill read. Loved it. Hee books are all so unusual, interesting, and even mysterious.An interesting book

5By LaurieDismeReally enjoyed the flow of the storyline.Loved it!
5By tisithefrenchiestfryI was bummed when I finished it! It’s a definite page turner and I couldn’t wait to see where the ladies went next. There were times I was irritated with what they were doing/saying/thinking but when do we ever love everything about someone? Never. It was funny, charming, heart wrenching and genuine. The characters seemed real and I loved the interaction between the main women and their crazy kooky family they love in spite of it all. I loved how at the end of each chapter was an excerpt from a stranger who’d seen the family doing something in public that touched their own lives. I thought this addition was witty and a wonderful idea.Three Wishes
4By avidreader4everGood character development and a page turner for sure. Too much unsavory language for my taste but the characters were relatable in a quirky sort of way.
