The Silent Sister by Diane Chamberlain is an average book. It is a mystery, but it's a mystery from the past that has resurfaced. The main character is a little annoying, but with what she's going through trying to find out if her sister is still alive may be the reason for it. I won't go into too much detail, but her decisions are questionable. I didn't like the fact that she was letting people into her childhood home that she didn't trust. I guess that's just what the author wanted for her. She did develop into a likable character by the end. I ended up rooting for her by the final pages. The twist in the book was not completely predictable early on, so that was nice. It's written in the point of view of two of the characters. So, if you don't like those kinds of books, then this one might annoy you for that fact alone. It also jumps from the present to the past to the present, etc. Overall, it wasn't bad at all. I don't regret reading it. However, it just didn't have that extra something for me to give it more than an average score. I give it 3 out of 5 stars.
