I somewhat liked the writing style? But I felt like it was trying to be really deep when it should've taken a more fun route. Like the ending felt very cheesy and some of the dialogue felt unnatural. And, don't get me wrong, I love fiction that has weird dialogue but I don't think this is the genre or book for that. I wish the twins weren't perceived so closely together all the time. They ate and thought the same things, burst at the same time, even spoke in unison (literally all the time??). It just didn't make sense. These are super amazing and rare kids. let them have their own identities.


Onto the positives, it moved pretty fast and was an easy read! I loved Carl! Almost wanted him and Lillian to raise the twins as coparents or something. Carl was just such an amazing and nuanced character to me. And the relationship between Madison and Lillian was cool too. Genuinely love this wlw arch. And I really like that it goes unexplored and unanswered at the end. It just feels realistic.


Although I did have some eyebrow raisers and small things I'd change, I did really like this. I think it's a good book if you're just getting back into reading novels OR you want something that's very low pressure (not too much adventure/action, pretty PG?). I also very rarely give anything below 3 stars so 4/5 for me :)
