A Random House announcement revealed the release date for "Brothers and Sisters" to be April 13. In her second memoir, Westover recounts the rivalry between her parents and their differing perspectives on her account of her upbringing in a Mormon survivalist family in Idaho, including allegations of physical abuse by an older sibling.
