Firstly, this is not a thriller. There is no mystery or underlying shock or twist. It was however, psychological- and explores the importance and complexity of identity.
This was a mostly uncomfortable read for me. Being a mother of twins I was acutely aware of the preference of the one twin over the other and I obviously didn't like it. But in the end it was a satisfying read.
