Fern and Rose are fraternal twins but completely different from one another. Rose is married and desperate for a child while Fern lives alone and works at the local library, in an ordered and structured manner. Fern has sensory-processing issues, and is hypersensitive to sound, lights, touch and smell and Rose has looked after Fern all her life. When Rose discovers that she cannot fall pregnant, Fern sees her chance to pay Rose back by having a baby for her , but things soon start spiraling out of control when Rose’s protectiveness turns into obsession

The Good Sister by Sally Hepworth is told from two POVs, Rose through her journal, and Fern in the present. A well-written ,character driven domestic thriller with some twists and turns it made for an engaging unputdownable read.

I would like to thank St. Martin’s Press & NetGalley for providing an ARC of this book in exchange for my honest and fair review.

First off, the cover of this book is GORGEOUS! Second, what a plot twist of a psychological thriller. The Good Sister will keep you guessing from the first page.

I really enjoyed this book. Gave me a great perspective of what how impactful a sensory processing disorder is

I would give this book 3 1/2 stars if I could. It is well written and will leave you trying to decide which is the good sister until near the end.
