The Desirable Sister by Taslim Burkowicz Pdf

Gia and Serena Pirji are sisters, but as the first-generation born in Canada to immigrant parents, their lives play out in different ways because of their skin tone. Gia’s fair skin grants her membership to cliques of white kids as a teen, while Serena’s dark skin means she is labelled as Indian and treated as inferior. This superficial difference, imposed by a society obsessed with skin colour and hierarchy, sets the sisters into a dynamic that plays out throughout their lives. In a world where white skin is preferable, the sisters are pitted against each other through acts of revenge and competition as they experience adultery, ruined friendships, domestic abuse, infertility and motherhood. Taslim Burkowicz’s vivid, sensory-rich writing style brings readers to the party scene in Goa, suburban supermarkets in Vancouver and a safari in Africa, where Gia and Serena navigate through the highs and lows of a tumultuous, loving relationship. The Desirable Sister reveals the bitter games of treachery women are forced to play to achieve the ranks of beauty and success, and ultimately shows the strength of love between sisters.

You're the Best Sister Ever by Maria Smedstad Pdf

For better or for worse, your sister is with you for life. She knows all your deepest, darkest secrets, and finally has gotten to the age where she won't share them with anyone. You're the Best Sister Ever is a collection of bold, sassy illustrations and funny, honest insights into one of the deepest bonds women experience. Some sample truths, from the affectionate to the witty: "You love my friends, but dislike my enemies more than I do.'' "You supply me with a nice second wardrobe.'' "You know what I wear (and what I eat) when I think no one else is around, and you still seem to love me.'' Just hip enough not to be sappy, this book is the perfect gift for that one-of-a-kind sister.
