Sisters... No Way! | comment |
Sisters... No Way! is a novel by Irish author Siobhán Parkinson. A modern Cinderella re-telling, it's told in the unique form of two diary accounts for its protagonists.Cindy Ellis is a fifteen-year-old girl whose mother has just died of an unnamed illness, and she's trying to get on with everyday life. That doesn't prove easy when one too many Crocodile Tears to get out of class lands her in with the school guidance counselor Margaret Magee. Margaret starts seeing her father more regularly, and the relationship soon becomes less about business.We also get to hear the story from the perspective of Margaret's oldest daughter Aishling, who is a similar age to Cindy. She and her younger sister Alva notice how close their mother and Cindy's father are growing - and all three girls soon realise that there's a strong possibility they'll all become sisters.

Sisters... No Way! / int_16838478 | comment |
The Disease That Shall Not Be Named: It's not said what illness Cindy's mother died of. The comparisons with cancer are drawn at some point, and Cindy says that her mother was beautiful before she got sick, so presumably it was cancer. | |

Good Girls Avoid Abortion | |
Sisters... No Way! / int_8387bb18 | comment |
Good Girls Avoid Abortion: Margaret gets pregnant with a man she's only been dating for a few months, while she's also a single parent of two teenage daughters, and already struggling financially. The solution is to move in with Richard, bringing Aishling and Alva with her. Granted, abortion was illegal in Ireland at the time, and she would likely have been raised conservatively to not even consider such a thing, but she and Philip had already gone to great efforts to get a divorce when that was still illegal in Ireland too. Of course the out of universe reason is that this re-telling of Cinderella requires a good reason for the stepfamily to move in. | |

Cool Aunt: Imelda, Richard's sister, is someone who always has time for Cindy and lets her stay over whenever she wants. Cindy even briefly imagines that she might live with her if Richard marries Margaret. | |

Strong Family Resemblance | |
Sisters... No Way! / int_c5fe6c81 | comment |
Strong Family Resemblance: Cindy at one point puts on some of her mother's clothes, and when her father sees her he does a Double Take because she looks so like her. | |

The Nicknamer | |
Sisters... No Way! / int_c83cd6b8 | comment |
The Nicknamer: Cindy has nicknames for all her teachers - Aishling notes in her diary that they're not very original. Alva nicknames Cindy "The Noxious". Later in Aishling's story, we learn that she comes up with the nickname "Bob" (short for Robert) for her boyfriend and she and her family are the only ones who use this nickname. Everyone else, including Cindy, calls him Robbie. | |

What the Hell, Hero? | |
Sisters... No Way! / int_d39e327f | comment |
What the Hell, Hero?: The first line of Cindy's diary. She takes offense to someone suggesting that her mother's death was a "happy relief". Her father explains he meant as in a happy release from the pain of her mother's illness but Cindy still finds it rude. | |

Hypocrite | |
Sisters... No Way! / int_d52d28b6 | comment |
Hypocrite: Lampshaded by Cindy when she talks about how Margaret advises girls against unprotected sex as part of her job - and yet ends up pregnant herself. | |

I Have Many Names | |
Sisters... No Way! / int_d5d976dd | comment |
I Have Many Names: Margaret isn't aware that she has about three nicknames among her students. It's Milly Molly Mandy at the beginning, and Cindy remembers it used to be Maggie-Maggie (before a third Maggie was added). Cindy herself christens her 'The Bay Tree' after her hairstyle. | |

Narm:invoked When Cindy is launching into her rant on Alva, she notes in her diary that the girl has an unintentionally funny reaction on her face. | |
