"The Reel Sisters" by Michelle Cummings follows the journey of four women who bond over fly fishing: Rose, Veronica, Amanda, and Sophie. Despite their diverse backgrounds and aspirations, they unite in pursuit of a common goal. Before forming their team, they each had individual objectives, with Rose being the oldest and most experienced in fly fishing. They rescue a young girl named Melody during one of their trips, and she quickly becomes an integral part of their group. The narrative unfolds through the characters' fishing successes and life stories, painting a vivid picture of their personalities and histories.
 
I was particularly drawn to Rose's character and admired how she coordinated with the other women. Each protagonist is endearing, and their stories are narrated in the first-person present tense, allowing readers to relate to their journeys. The book provides clear explanations of fly fishing without compromising the plot, and the characters' unique plotlines keep the reader engaged. I was impressed by the portrayal of friendships and the well-crafted narrative. 
 
The book is a compelling narrative that not only imparts knowledge about fly fishing but also serves as a vehicle for conveying valuable life lessons. Through the experiences of the female characters, the book emphasizes the importance of breaking gender barriers and pursuing new endeavors regardless of societal norms. Michelle, the author, strategically utilizes these characters to inspire and uplift women, highlighting their ability to excel in unconventional domains. Also, the inclusion of insightful quotes at the beginning of each section adds depth to the narrative, offering wisdom applicable beyond the realm of fishing techniques. I found the book to be informative and well-edited. I must appreciate both the author's creativity and the editor's exceptional editing.
 
There is nothing I dislike about this book. I rate this book 5 out of 5 stars because of the exceptional lessons it contains.
 
I recommended this book to those interested in exploring unconventional pursuits and appreciating the bonds of camaraderie.
