About this listen

'IT MOVED ME DEEPLY' LIV LITTLE

'DEEPLY POIGNANT' HARPERS BAZAAR

'GORGEOUS' RAVEN LEILANI

'It will make you laugh, cry deeply, and want to call your siblings’ Cosmopolitan

The Blue sisters have always been exceptional – and exceptionally different.

Avery, a strait-laced lawyer living in London, is the typical eldest daughter, though she’s hiding a secret that could undo her perfect life forever.

Bonnie was a boxer but, following a devastating defeat, she's been working as a bouncer in LA – until a reckless act one night threatens to drive her out of the city.

And Lucky, the rebellious youngest, is a model in Paris whose hard-partying ways are finally catching up with her.

Then there was Nicky, the beloved fourth sister, whose unexpected death left Avery, Bonnie and Lucky reeling.

When, a year later, the three of them must reunite in New York to stop the sale of their childhood home, they find that it's only by returning to each other that they can navigate their grief, addiction and heartbreak and learn to fall in love with life again.

Critic reviews

'The story of Avery, Bonnie, Nicky and Lucky is a healing balm to lost souls. Blue Sisters will unearth tenderness and heartache from spectacular depths within you, giving new dimensions to the word blue.' Xochitl Gonzalez, author of Olga Dies Dreaming

'I never imagined a novel about grief could leave me feeling so warm. Coco Mellors has crafted a richly textured tale of love, loss, and addiction in all its complexities. When I made it to the final page, I had tears in my eyes. I will be thinking about the Blue sisters for a long time.' Isabel Kaplan author of NSFW

The second listen was even better

This is a must. I’m writing this after a second listen. It hit the spot just as hard if not more. The story woven between the sisters is compelling and beautifully told. The narrator impeccable. It’s a book to absorb

Read this! Definitely read this!!!

The story stood up to the hype! Coco did not disappoint, i highly recommend. However, it was only the hype that kept me listening, i have listened to hundreds of books and the narration was so monotonous I struggled from the very start.

Excellent

Really brilliant narrator. Heartbreaking and hard going in places like Cleopatra & Frankenstein but more redemption for the characters which you hope for.

Stunning

I loved every moment of this. The characters were so beautifully developed and I connected to them all in their own ways. The ending… just a stunning novel.

Loved this

I really loved it, and after finishing it over a month ago, still think about it a lot. The dynamics between the sisters is truthful but lovely to listen to and relate to.

Utterly absorbing

When I was half way through reading Mellor's debut novel "Cleopatra & Frankenstein" I knew I'd be first in line to read anything she writes in future. Blue Sisters did not disappoint. The depth of character development is outstanding, and I'm glad I chose to listen to the audiobook. This is the best audio narration I've come across, incredible performance and I found myself carving out any opportunity to listen throughout the day. 100% recommend!

Different Responses to Loss

As a New Yorker who has made her adult life in London I love the story having feet in both places. Loss of a sibling is under represented in fiction I think. This teaches you everything you need to know. Great vivid characters. Lots of sadness.
