Discussion Questions
Use our LitLovers Book Club Resources; they can help with discussions for any book:

How to Discuss a Book (helpful discussion tips)
Generic Discussion Questions—Fiction and Nonfiction
Read-Think-Talk (a guided reading chart)

Also consider these LitLovers talking points to help get a discussion started for Sisters & Lovers:

1. Talk about the differences between the three sisters. What are each of their strengths and weaknesses? Do you have a favorite sister...if so, who and why?

2. What views or expectations does each sister have of marriage? Realistic or not?

3. By the end, what have the three women learned—about themselves, each other, their husbands, and the institution of marriage? How have they changed if, in fact, they have? Has one of the sisters had more to learn than the others?
