My Rating---> 3 of 5 STARS
Read on Oct. 20th, 2014
This was a good book, a bit sad but it is a wonderful depiction of a high school girl dealing with her grief over the loss of a sister she thought she was close to. The secrets that come out after people pass away and the things they were always keeping to themselves and all that. The author, Suzy Vitello did a wonderful job with this novel, the flow of the writing was perfect, the story line was great, the emotions were spot on, and the characters were believable.
The Irish twin girls is something I relate to as well, my sister and I are close in age and my two boys are only 14 months apart in age and you think you are telling each other everything and are a part of everything the other does but then one day you realize you don't know them as well as you thought you did. I wasn't sucked into this book and had to fight myself to keep from putting it down a few times but for some unknown reason I was compelled to see what happened next and I felt attached to Brady and the strange way she felt as if she was still communicating with her sister Sabine, I also really wanted to see if Brady would make things work out between her and Connor or if she ever spills all the secrets she uncovered about Sabine and her relationship with Nick.
The ending was a bit hectic and hurried, like everything just happened so quickly but it was a good wrap up to the book. I despite my boredom in the beginning ended up actually really liking this novel and I felt as if it was worth reading. If anyone asked me for a coming of age novel recommendation I would add this to my list of good reads.
