Our view
“Sisters” is an honest, funny graphic memoir about sibling rivalry and a worthy companion to Raina Telgemeier’s “Smile”. A long summer drive from San Francisco to Colorado frames Raina’s fraught bond with her younger sister, Amara. Some readers value how gently yet truthfully it handles rivalry and family tension for a young audience; others, fond of the author’s other books, find this one a little flatter.
