Item Description...
Product Description
A CBA Bestselling Author Canadian sisters Melanie and Joanne are stunned to hear they've inherited their uncle's beachfront summerhouse in Mexico. With a snap, a trip is planned: They'll travel opulently by cruise ship to Ensenada, zip over to San Felipe, sign a few papers at the bank, and the tropical hideaway will be theirs. What they don't expect is a spa treatment gone loco, snails and cactus on their dinner plates, risky ocean dips, a cross-country desert drive, a dishy doctor, or a Federale who doesn't speak English!

 | Hola! Sep 26, 2008 |
This is the perfect chick lit to have on hand when the reader just wants to relax and enjoy a funny story. Two "almost twins"--sisters who were born so close together that folks always asked if they were twins--share a space of time thanks to the gift of a cruise from their wealthy aunt. They move from the luxury of being platinum card members, who receive VIP treatment on a cruise ship, to a Mexican hovel with no electricity or running water, and meet Rosa, who knows the definition of graciousness.
The sisters cannot speak Spanish, and the Mexicans cannot speak English, but they manage. They end up appreciating the good things that they have always had. The trip moves them closer to each other and closer to God. There were a few times in the story that I held my breath, hoping that the story did not stray from its lighthearted track. Not to worry; the author knows how to handle an enjoyable tale.
Never having been on a cruise, I learned a good deal about the luxury of taking a cruise to Mexico. For me, this certainly was a bonus. The characters enjoy their trip and so did I. | | | | Mexico adventure Sep 21, 2008 |
I am so glad I found the sisterchick books. As someone who has a really bad case of wanderlust, I love to read of other people's travel adventures. Also, there is always an uplifting message.
This one is no exception. I truly enjoyed the story of Melanie and Joanne's cruise/vehicle adventure to claim property from their deceased Uncle Harlan. It all starts with a first class cruise and ends the same with the exception of an "extra fishy passenger" on board. In the middle is a jeep ride through Baja, and truly heart warming love story along with coconut cake.
In my opinion, this was much better than the second book that took place in Hawaii, and was definitely as good as the very first book. I am currently reading the fourth in the series, and it seems to be a winner so far.
Love, love, love this one. I have to recommend this to all those Sisterchicks out there looking for an adventure! | | | | Great! Jul 10, 2007 |
| I got this for my birthday and finished it in about two weeks (reading for a while before bed each night). I loved it. I need to share it with a friend and see if she wants to be my 'sisterchick'. | | |  | 3rd book more chick-lit, but still good Jul 15, 2006 |
| Sisterchicks in Sombreros by Robin Jones Gunn is the 3rd installment in this series. One of the great things about this series is that the stories really aren't related so you can read them in any order and not miss anything, but I enjoyed the reference to book #2 in this one. Melanie and Joanne are sisters who have lost touch with each other and in some ways themselves until their uncle leaves them beachfront property in Mexico that they must visit in order to inherit. The trip takes them on a cruise ship, driving across Baja, and into more scrapes than they ever thought they could handle. The message of the book is surrender. Surrender to God, surrender control, and surrender our expectations in order to really fully experience life. The message is powerful, and I really enjoyed the read, but I felt this book was more chick-lit (no pun intended) than the previous two which had deeper themes. It's still a winner! | | | | Love Sisterchicks! Dec 20, 2005 |
I love all the sisterchick books. I hope i have adventures like that when i turn into my 40's. (although that won't be for another 20 years or so!).
I loved how Robin Jones Gunn always inserts characters or plots from the Christy Miller series into her books. For the casual reader it's nothing special, but for those who grew up reading Christy Miller and Sierra Jensen it's a treat to see old friends. So that's why I was pleasantly surprised to see christy's aunt and uncle, Marti and Bob, on the cruise ship with Melanie and Joanne. I didn't recognize them at first b/c he was called Robert. But then it was like ..DUH! | | | Write your own review about Sisterchicks in Sombreros (Sisterchicks Series #3)
