The Sisters by Jonas Hassen Khemiri fits here perfectly. I listen to it rn - engaging read, and the mother/daughters’ relationships are at its core, same level as relationships bw three sisters.

My pleasure! If you have an option to borrow an audiobook from your library, it could be a good option — it is a bit on a thick side.
