Review: Sisters in the Outback

By Pura from Rosas Viajeras

Sisters in the Outback is a beautifully written short story that follows two adult sisters on a long-awaited weekend escape to Uluru Kata Tjuta National Park. More than just a travel narrative, it’s a reflective and moving piece about the connection between siblings, with the land, and within oneself. As someone who has visited this remarkable part of Australia, I found the story both relatable and moving.

The story traces the sisters’ journey from their home to the heart of the Red Centre. From the anticipation of travel to the stillness of sunrise at Uluru, the author captures not only the physical beauty of the landscape but also the emotional significance of the trip. 

What I loved most was how powerfully the story conveyed the visceral experience of being in Uluru Kata Tjuta. The descriptions of the changing light over the rock formations were so vivid, I was transported back to my own visit. The spiritual atmosphere of the park, its quiet power, its timeless presence, was seamlessly woven into the narrative.

The writing itself is clear, easy to read, and well-paced, perfectly suited to the reflective nature of the story. 

Sisters in the Outback is a powerful reminder of the beauty of shared experiences and the deep impact of nature and the earth’s powerful places. It’s a short read, but one that lingers long after the final sentence. Highly recommended for anyone who’s been to Uluru—or dreams of going.

Note from the Author:

It's an uplifting feeling when your story finds the right people. 

I discovered Roxana & Pura's travel stories via Pinterest and knew immediately that I had to share Sisters in the Outback with them. Their travel experience was aligned with mine and Jude's and I was eager to hear their interpretation of our experience. 

To say I am thrilled with their thoughts would be an understatement. I am delighted! Thank you x

I, in fact, have a further triple treat for Sisters in the Outback today.

Whilst celebrating the beautiful prose in Pura's review above, I am also celebrating the launch of Sisters in the Outback in paperback TODAY! It went 'live' overnight on Amazon while I was sleeping, and what a joy it was, to wake up to the news this morning. 

Sisters in the Outback - Paperback, click here: Brand new original cover! 

Secondly, today marks one month since release day of the ebook version 🎉🥳

Not only that, tomorrow happens to be a celebration of World Trails Day. I simply could not pass up the opportunity to join in the celebrations. I'll be hosting a YouTube 'party' as it were, baking bread rolls that emulate the meals Jude and I survived on (okay, maybe that's a stretch haha), for our 72 hours in Uluru. If you'd like to join the fun, find me on Foodie Fun with Books: Bread Rolls Recipe; click here:

And then...

hit the trails to connect with nature, get some fresh air and exercise. 

Bring your friends, your dog, or take a solo hike (safely), and follow the paths 

or, blaze your own (safely).
