I love books that aren't afraid to dig deep and tackle the heavy themes and topics that are sometimes skimmed over instead. Seriously, this book...holy shoot, I need it. Absolutely fabulous review, Eugenia! You've convinced me to give this one a go (as soon as my wallet agrees with me).Rae Oestreichhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11102209066412105186noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1530164804090408863.post-88871974069758889902015-08-27T16:12:47.339+10:002015-08-27T16:12:47.339+10:00It's definitely a serious topic, though in the...It's definitely a serious topic, though in the book it is handled quite tactfully and realistically too. I can see what you mean though, I guess it would come down to seeing for yourself if you'd like it.

I am still quite intrigued though, your review has made sure of that!

Non identical twins, one takes a gun to school as well. But this sounds as though it's far more complex, deliciously so. I'm utterly fascinated by the twin bond, and sibling dynamics, in which this pushes those boundaries. A true thriller. Thanks for the phenomenal review, definitely grabbing a copy of this <3Diva Booknerdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17808412083567644984noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1530164804090408863.post-37709715036504333102015-08-25T19:25:53.163+10:002015-08-25T19:25:53.163+10:00I'll need to dash to a bookstore and look for ...I'll need to dash to a bookstore and look for this one ASAP as it sound so raw and difficult, which are some of the top things I look for in contemporary.
