When I first read the title of this book I didn’t think I would be interested in it at all, I don’t care for fishing. But after reading the sample and the review I’m actually very interested in actually reading the entire book.

The adventures of the women are interesting. Initially, I had no idea about it.

Sounds like a holistic book on friendship and building bridges among people who have just met or complete strangers. From your review, I would like to explore more.

This is a good review of friendship, oneness and unity. These are moral values society cherishes most.Putting them in a beautiful story such as this is great. Thanks Michelle.

I didn't know fly fishing was a thing until I read this review. Now, I'm curious as to how and why these women get into the sport and how it influenced their friendship. Thanks for the insightful review.

I'm glad that this book gives the women an interest which is not considered traditionally feminine by mainstream, patriarchal societies. I'm not into that sort of thing myself, but I love to see diversity, especially when depicting women. Thank you for the insightful review!

I, myself, am a fishing girl. I love it. I'm not huge on fly fishing, but I'll do that, too. I read a bit of the book prior to this review, and I love what I read so far. This book definitely has some humor and some spunk!

Fly fishing the concept is interesting and the sisterhood is always something about sharing etc. The more what adds to the story is naked women from water.loking forward to read it.

I don't know much about fly fishing, but I do know that sharing a love of something obscure can bond otherwise very disparate people into the closest of friends. I'm glad the author has taken advice from the reviewer on board and had the book edited!

I'm not really interested in fly fishing and I don't know much about it, but this book sounds like a cute story about friendship and the fact that the girls find a woman naked in a river adds a sense of mystery to the novel. Great job on the review! And it's also great that the book has been edited again!

Post by Roggyrus »

The Reel Sisters are commendable in having this sisterhood of women with similar hobbies. Their being engaged in fly fishing resulted in an encounter with a woman in dire need of their help, that is, for them to fish her out of the river, and be freed from the water current that drags her along. This book introduces to women who are not aware yet, the sport of fly fishing and the delightful camaraderie afforded by the association they would make with other enthusiasts. This could be a new experience for many. Thank you for this wonderful review.

It sounds ok, makes someone wish to read into it through and get to know more about fly fishing mostly to ladies because it never happened before that women can do it

While I did enjoy the movie mentioned by the author, A River Runs Through It, I had never considered learning how to fly fish. However, the author’s description of rivers: lures, and time spent with her friends caused me to become fascinated in her hobby. Her words bring the reader into her fishing experiences.
