Customer Reviews

Laughter to tears

I really enjoyed this book. I think it was more about the relationships, the angst of going on the trip being pregnant, the challenges pregnancy presented, the abandon of getting into that swim suit anyway. I thought it was great and truly enjoyed going from hilarious laughter to tears. RJ Gunn is a great writer and touches on some deep and sensitive issues for women in general.

Lots of fun, beautiful descriptions of Hawaii

Sisterchicks Do the Hula by Robin Jones Gunn is the second fun, moving book in the Sisterchick series. Hope and Laurie always wanted to travel to Hawaii together; it just takes them twenty years to get there! While there both women break out of their shells and start living for real in the Lord. Gunn does such an amazing job describing Hawaii, I wanted to call a travel agent as soon as I finished the book. The descriptions of sunrises and sunsets almost make it seem like there is no place on earth closer to God. The women's friendship is a graceful, beautiful thing, as much a part of the story as each woman's individual growth. This book seemed a little lighter spiritually than the first book, but it's still a true joy to read.

A Great Read

I called my "sisterchick" half way through this book and told her to start saving her pennies because in 4 years when we turn 40 we're heading to Hawaii! This is a really fun book to read...lots of laugh out loud fun, and Hawaiian culture. I also love that it is about 2 Christian women out having a great time, but I thought it may be a little too preachy. I agree with a previous post that I would have liked to hear a little about things that may have gone wrong on their perfect vacation. I love reading it...and look forward to the next SisterChicks story...
