“A big, blowzy romp through the rainbow eccentricities of three generations of crazy bayou debutantes.”—Atlanta Journal-Constitution“A very entertaining and, ultimately, deeply moving novel about the complex bonds between mother and daughter.”—Washington Post“Mary McCarthy, Anne Rivers Siddons, and a host of others have portrayed the power and value of female friendships, but no one has done it with more grace, charm, talent, and power than Rebecca Wells.”—Richmond Times-DispatchThe incomparable #1 New York Times bestseller—a book that reigned at the top of the list for an remarkable sixty-eight weeks—Rebecca Wells’s Divine Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood is a classic of Southern women’s fiction to be read and reread over and over again. A poignant, funny, outrageous, and wise novel about a lifetime friendship between four Southern women, Divine Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood brilliantly explores the bonds of female friendship, the often-rocky relationship between mothers and daughters, and the healing power of humor and love, in a story as fresh and uplifting as when it was first published a decade and a half ago. If you haven’t yet met the Ya-Yas, what are you waiting for?

"Funny enjoyable but largely unmemorable read"

"I loved the movie so I read the book and it was so much better (which is often the case, right?) Warm, interesting, funny AND heart-breaking…everything you could ever want in a book. The sequels are great, too."

"This book makes me want to live a life full of feeling. To be young again. To ride around with my hands up in a convertible under southern stars, without a care in the world. Glamorous southern women who refuse to blend in— each growing, together, through every turn of the page. This isn’t a tacky southern novel; but an authentic and raw love letter a life that can only be forged in southern heat."
