About this listen

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • READ WITH JENNA BOOK CLUB PICK AS FEATURED ON TODAY • Three estranged siblings return to their family home in New York after their beloved sister’s death in this “deeply nuanced and compelling” (Vogue) novel, from the acclaimed author of Cleopatra and Frankenstein.

“A beautiful portrait of grief and the world-shaping bond sisters share.”—Real Simple

A VOGUE AND HARPER’S BAZAAR BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR

The three Blue sisters are exceptional—and exceptionally different. Avery, the eldest and a recovering heroin addict turned strait-laced lawyer, lives with her wife in London; Bonnie, a former boxer, works as a bouncer in Los Angeles following a devastating defeat; and Lucky, the youngest, models in Paris while trying to outrun her hard-partying ways. They also had a fourth sister, Nicky, whose unexpected death left the family reeling. A year later, as they each navigate grief, addiction, and ambition, they find they must return to New York to stop the sale of the apartment they were raised in.

But coming home is never as easy as it seems. As the sisters reckon with the disappointments of their childhood and the loss of the only person who held them together, they realize that the greatest secrets they’ve been keeping might not have been from one another but from themselves.

Imbued with Coco Mellors’s signature combination of humor and heart, Blue Sisters is a story of what it takes to keep living after loss—and, ultimately, to fall in love with life again.

Critic reviews

“In lush, cozy prose, Mellors guides us into the lives of Avery, Bonnie, and Lucky Blue, reuniting to clean out their childhood apartment in New York City on the first anniversary of their sister Nicky’s death. . . . She is . . . able to capture the ferality, stickiness, and beauty of both sisterhood and grief.”The New York Times

“This intricate portrait of a family of sisters is deeply nuanced and compelling, a family drama with intimate psychological portraits within it.”Vogue

Blue Sisters by Coco Mellors paints a beautiful portrait of grief and the world-shaping bond sisters share.”Real Simple

I fell in love with Cleopatara and Frankenstein and was counting down the days until this release. Now, I've stopped listening to audiobooks in the past due to being turned off by the narrator and if it wasn't for loving Coco's first release, I would have stopped listening to this one pretty quickly. The narration is distracting, grating and irritating. The narrator, who did a LOVELY job with Cleopatara and Frankenstein, adopts a flat, monotone Jersey-esque accent with weird, choppy stilted pauses throughout her sentences. It's almost comically bad. It was hard to push through honestly because I found it so distracting. Really unfortunate because I know the narrator can do a lovely job and this book itself was beautifully written but whatever she was trying to do here was NOT working. Surprised it actually was published this way.

Love Coco Mellors, HATED the narration

Girls who grew up in the upper west side in the last 20-30 years would not have this imagined version of a New York accent. Took me out of the story again and again

Unrealistic New York accent

I liked every bit of it. The narrator makes this as intense as it needs to be. The love, anger, frustration worry, and jealousy that colors all sister relationships is palpable. And the research! A knockout!

I can’t stop recommending this!!

I liked the narration because it’s different and seems appropriate to the story, so no issues for me. Loved the story addressing very human, flawed characters who directly love each other.

Beautiful family story…with ups and downs

I have siblings, have for many years, so I'm helplessly drawn to stories about brothers and sisters, and their parents. I enjoyed this one.

A Story of Family

Having 5 sisters I could so identify with so much of the story! I’m going to tell all my sisters about the book - we are all book lovers!

Sisterhood, sometimes hard

I like the depth of each character and how they related to each other. The sister were struggling but always tied to each other.

The story of family

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.

it had very similar events to my childhood which weren't talked about, just memories you carry with you.

Almost relatable to my reality
