Identical

Do twins begin in the womb? Or in a better place?

Ok so this book was extremely weird. Usually I like Ellen Hopkins books even though the ending suck, but this book twisted so bad at the end I was in shock. Besides having odd content it was ok until the end when it took a major turn. Being a story narrated by two different people I assumed it was two different people.......I was rather shocked. Dealing with touchy subject like molest, drugs, and cutting it isn't appropriate for anyone younger than probably 13 at least. If you like stories that suprise you this is something you'd like.

Review/Description

Kaeleigh and Raeanne are identical down to the dimple. As daughters of a district-court judge father and a politician mother, they are an all-American family—on the surface. Behind the façade each sister has her own dark secret, and that's where their differences begin. For Kaeleigh, she's the misplaced focus of Daddy's love, intended for a mother whose presence on the campaign trail means absence at home. All that Raeanne sees is Daddy playing a game of favorites—and she is losing. If she has to lose, she will do it on her own terms, so she chooses drugs, alcohol, and sex. Secrets like the ones the twins are harboring are not meant to be kept—from each other or anyone else. Pretty soon it's obvious that neither sister can handle it alone, and one sister must step up to save the other, but the question is—who?
