Just a little too YA and heavy on the intense twin sister bond and I’m not the biggest fan of amnesia tropes either so struggling to stay interested. I don’t think it sucks though. I just have so many library books to get through, so I’m returning this one for now.

Very slow and weird, not a thriller, but a psychological drama. Best part of the book was the last few chapters.

This was ok. Written fairly well, but I really didn't care for the pig latin variant the twins used to talk to one another -- or that Kahler felt the need to translate it each time, even though we'd long learned to read it.
A lot of the action in the first half wasn't particularly gripping for me, and I think in many cases was only inserted to pay off later revelations. I guess it felt like it was written back to front. She goes to back room poker games because that's how they used evangelize for the Plan . How'd she end up at the game though? Well I guess we'll give her a love interest that will enable her sister's later betrayal . At Violet's behest I guess? Because so much of the first act came off as inconsequential I really struggled to get into the book. It was a lot more interesting once the cult stuff entered the picture.
