Eventually Magda joins them during their last year at the camp, once she, their mother, and their grandfather are a...
I devoured this wonderful book!
Three Sisters was the third book by Heather Morris that I had the opportunity to read. It was not my favorite of her books but I appreciated that Heather Morris was able to share the sister’s story with her readers. These stories must continue to be handed down and talked about through future generations so that a Holocaust can never happen again. As in her two previous novels, Heather Morris was able to convey and portray through dialogue and acts the love, anguish, terror, regrets, bravery, co...

Their promise would be tested in 1942 when the Nazis started to round up all the Jewish teenagers.

This is the third book in the Tattooist of Auschwitz Series but can be read as a stand-alone. Three Sisters by Heather Morris is a beautifully written heartbreaking story based on true events. Morris is an auto-buy author for me because I love WWII Fiction and she has a way of bringing life lessons to the forefront in such a positive way. In Three Sisters, Morris shares the story of Cibi, Magda and Livia. As families were being torn apart during WWII, these children promised their father that th...
2 – 1/2*This book has a very superficial feel to it in spite of the subject matter.Slovakian sisters Cibi, Livia and Magda make a solemn promise to their dying father to always stay together and to take care of each other.Cibi and Livi are the first to be carted off to Auschwitz-Birkenau even before the camp buildings are completed so much so the sisters get 4-digit tattoos which in some cases keeps them out of the gas chambers. Magda is saved by a doctor in their home town who keeps her in hosp...

4.5 StarsThis is a work of fiction, as it states clearly, but many of the characters included in this story were real people whose stories are shared through the creativity of Heather Morris. As this story begins, it is June of 1929 and the setting is Vranov nad Topl’ou in Slovakia where three sisters, Cibi, Magda and Livi are sitting in their backyard with their father. Livi is only three years old - the wild one, Cibi is the oldest at seven and has a fiery temper, and Magda is five, the beauti...
