Joy Sinclair Lasky is one of four adopted daughters. She is the quiet list-maker of the bunch. Her sisters Meg, Kendra and Tandy have always been the standouts. Joy is the one who has everything planned out, in order and in control. When she and her husband, Scott, decide that they would like to start trying to conceive a child they find out that not everything falls under their control. Also, as an adopted child from China, Joy has the desire to visit the land of her birth and understand something of the culture where her biological mother lives.
There is also a lot more going on in Scrapping Plans. The father of the girls, Jack Sinclair, has found a new lady love after having been a widower for ten years and all four daughters are struggling with how to adapt to the possibility of their father’s remarriage without dishonoring their mother’s memory.
Creative sister Kendra is about to get married and the family is deeply involved in helping her make her special day uniquely hers. Sisters Meg and Tandy are also struggling with a few issues of their own.
Scrapping Plans is book number four in the Sisters, Ink series. The series is named after the sisters love of scrapbooking. I haven’t read any of the first three and I am not a scrapbooker. I did feel like I was missing some of the back story. However, I didn’t feel like it was a real hindrance. I was able to get a lot of the cues from the current story line. I’m sure I would have gotten more out of it if I’d started with number one but this was an enjoyable read. If you enjoy scrapbooking or chick-lit then you will enjoy this book. (3/5)
