That's the best thing about little sisters: They spend so much time wishing they were elder sisters that in the end they're far wiser than the elder ones could ever be.”—Gemma Burgess

My best friend is so much the sister I never had, and I’m so grateful for that. She’s always there for me, taking care, listening to my problems and most important supporting me in everything I do or think of.

The greatest of all gifts is to have a friend in a sister. Good friends are like sisters with different parents; They’re someone you can laugh with, cry with, vent out your anger and frustration too. If I were to describe a best friend in one word, that word would be a sister. I love her so much and we always get along.

I’ve always admired my little sister because she’s able to play with no fear. She’s a cutthroat player when it comes to taking risks.”—Ashley Prange Finding a friend who acts like a sister is something special. Someone who listens to your every problem supports you and knows everything about you. Honest and loyal, she will always find the time for you no matter where she is. Like A Sister is fresh, original, funny and with such a strong voice, like a great noir novel of the 1920s and 30s sling-shotted into modern-day New York. Think Dashiell Hammett with hip hop and social media. In Lena Scott, Kellye Garrett has created a cynical, loyal and utterly real character – the kind of modern, clued-up woman you’d definitely want on your side. Garrett is a clear front runner in the genre, writing a compulsive crime tale with family at its heart' Emma Bamford, debut author of Deep Water I love a book that has unique characters and isn’t afraid to give those characters depth. I felt this was going to be that book but in reality, the MC had thoughts about this and then there was nothing else. When her estranged ex–reality-star younger sister turns up shoeless and dead of an overdose on a Bronx playground, Lena Scott has to prove to herself—and everyone else—that it was not an accident.

Even though you are my little sister, your hugs during the difficult times in my life, have been like a hug from God.”—Kate Summers Lena Scott, Desiree’s sister, knows that can’t be true. Torn apart by Desiree’s partying and by their father, a wealthy and influential hip-hop mogul, the sisters haven’t spoken in years. But some things about Desiree couldn’t have changed, even with time. Sisters are best friends, they are advisors, they are teachers, and best of all they are people with whom you can talk with about anything—someone you have a special bond with!”—Catherine Pulsifer Acquaintances were always on their best behavior, but sisters loved each other enough to say anything.”—Lauren WeisbergerBecause there are two sides to every story – the one being told, and the one nobody wants you to know . . . A sister can be seen as someone who is both ourselves and very much not ourselves—a special kind of double.”—Toni Morrison Together, these elements of character and voice mesh with Like a Sister's explorations of race, class and family in an arresting combination. I have a friend who was just as close to me as a sister. We shared secrets and cried with each other, we told each other about our crushes on boys, we fought with each other and even got suspended from school together. We did everything together.

I think of you as a sister. I feel like you’re my sister, even though we aren’t biologically related.My sister, you are my friend. You’re as real as the sun, moon and stars. You are in my life, you are part of my happiness, you’re as real as a sister, as real For there is no friend like a sister in calm or stormy weather; To cheer one on the tedious way, to fetch one if one goes astray, to lift one if one totters down, to strengthen whilst one stands.”—Christina Rossetti A friend is one that knows you as you are, understands where you have been, accepts what you have become and still gently invites you to grow. Some friends are like sisters, they change your life and make you see things in a new way, they have a big impact on your personality by showing you the best ways to live and react, helping you when you have hard times, being positive with everyone even that is not worthy of it.
