It’s very simple, Magda.” Menachem smiles. There is nothing that gives him as much pleasure as talking to his girls. Something catches in his chest; he must remember this moment, this sunny day, the wide eyes of his three daughters. “I want you to make a promise to me and to each other that you will always take care of your sisters. That you will always be there for one another, no matter what. That you will not allow anything to take you away from each other. Do you understand?” Overall, this was barely an “ok” read for me. Many readers will love this for being a heartwarming, lighter wartime read. I feel that readers who have followed along in this trilogy will find this last book less intense and impactful. It was more of a cute, feel-good story than a powerful, emotional one. It failed to offer anything new and felt drawn out and repetitive. I strongly recommend reading Book 1 & 2 in this series and then adjusting your expectations for this one as it’s a completely different kind of read. I’m not saying anyone will, I just want you to promise me that if anyone tries to separate you, you will remember what we spoke of here today and do everything in your power not to let that happen. The three of you are stronger together, you must never forget that.” Menachem’s voice stumbles, and he clears his throat. EDIT to add: This could be a stand alone and I would not say that it is book 3 of a 3 book set. The two previous book characters were only mentioned once throughout the course of this book and it really didn't need to be there for this story. In the horror of the death camp, these three beautiful sisters are reunited. Though traumatised by their experiences, they are together.

Un libro para conocer mas todo lo que se vivió en esa época, con un estilo directo, al grano y bien escrito, la autora remata esta historia con un epilogo magnifico, con unas imágenes que se te ponen los pelos de punta. Three Sisters is the final book in The Tattooist of Auschwitz trilogy. I read the first and second and have been looking forward to where the story would go next. Is this her reality now? Must she carry this crippling fear into her new life? She may no longer be a prisoner, but will she ever be truly free?” I just didn’t feel I was learning anything new ‘about’ the horrors, struggles, hunger, work conditions- or escape …, When I’ve read books about the Holocaust, I find myself reading in disbelief because it is still so hard to believe that these atrocities happened and did so in the recent past, yet there is no doubt they did. This story is filled with courage and hope as these girls struggle and succeed at staying alive. It’s truly an amazing and inspiring story. Morris, through one of the characters, raises the question on many readers’ minds — How could God let this happen? I have no answers but appreciate that one of the sisters has such reservations and doubts about religion and spirituality. I am sure that many who suffered in concentration camps also lost such faith.

Livi turns to her father, her eyes dancing, the giggle in her throat threatening to explode, the warmth of his smile melting her little heart. “I pwomise, Father. Livi pwomises.” Two quotes: "The sisters share a hug that is about so much more than physical comfort. It is a bond which crosses time and space, which hurdles their pain and dulls their suffering. They each implicitly understand that mere distance will not break their bond." One of the best parts of the book are the notes at the end from family members and the author’s thoughts on visiting the sisters and their family. Don’t miss them! From international bestselling author Heather Morris comes the breathtaking conclusion to The Tattooist of Auschwitz trilogy.

Why do you think the sisters chose to leave their home in Slovakia after the war and embark on a journey to Israel? Do you think they would have done this had it not been for their experiences in the Holocaust? Heather Morris can do no wrong in my book and I look forward to reading more of her work in the future.

The tone of the book (for me), felt elementary and the dialogue between the sisters felt too sugary-sappy, for my taste. Their was a fluffiness tone - that many readers might adore —

Una historia REAL que narra la vida de tres hermanas que viven en Eslovaquia. La historia comienza cuando su padre, aun siendo unas niñas, les hace prometer que pase lo que pase van a permanecer juntas.There’s a small disconnect for me in how Heather Morris tells these stories, and I think it’s because she’s a screenwriter. The intimacy isn’t quite there. That said, the content of the books could not be more exceptional, and I’m grateful these stories have been told.
