It has been so long since I've been at the age where my sisters and I squabble and fight but secretly love each other, like these ladies; but reading this brought it all back. I didn't laugh out loud, exactly; but it really amused me in a way where I wanted to immediately share it with at least one of my sisters.

Just remember, humor is subjective, humor is subjective, humor is subjective.
I would love to love this series of sister cartoons, but I find them off, somehow. I just can't get how two sisters, in their 20s, from the read of this, are having these childish arguments, and other such situations that happen when they are together. Perhaps the 20s is the new teenager.
I found a few of the cartoons mildly amusing, but I found both sisters to be selfish, childish and argumentative. I know this series has a following, so as I said, humor is subjective. In the example below, the sisters discuss how one should behave in public, and one of them objects to talking to your baby. Sheesh.
And in the one below, one of the sisters just wants to be entertained.
And this one, below, they are texting about how bored they are, and the solution I actually found made sense. Life is short, and the boredom will pass.
Thanks to Netgalley for making this book available for an honest review.

✨ "I don't 'bitch'. I just express critical sentiments about people who don't happen to be present when I do it."

This book was cute, but lacked some substance that Soppy had. I like the quirky, sassy dialog between Philippa and her sister and the illustration style matches that attitude.

This book was so funny, and a bit unrealistic. I loved it. I rated it 4 stars because I couldn't tell the difference between the two sisters sometimes and the language wasn't filtered. The book was accurate enough to depict how a true sister relationship looks like sometimes. Me and my sister had times when we can be comfortable enough to be goofy, and even do some embarrassing things around each other. However, the unrealistic parts were the times when Philippa Rice depicted times when her and her sister got into a fight, and a time when the sisters can fit into each other's clothing. My sister and I are 15 years apart, so things like that couldn't happen.

This was a fun read!
Philippa Rice wrote Soppy an adorable graphic novel that featured real life moments with her boyfriend. In this one however she illustrates memories with her sister. Having a sister myself, I felt a personal connection to a lot of the stories.
That one actually happened not long ago, as we were watching on YouTube excellent auditions in talent shows:

Real cute, and reminded me a lot of the way my sister is my BFF even though she can be the most annoying.
I'm not sure this is the book for you if you don't have siblings though, I felt I liked it because of my own experiences rather than on its own merits.
