I really liked this story - great writing, great character development and a heroine to root for. Reminiscent of Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine.

I received this book from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review. Every time I opened this book, I was immediately sucked in by the characters and the writing. This is a psychological thriller a la Gillian Flynn, featuring two twin sisters and their relationship with each other. One twin, Fern, has sensory processing disorder, and Rose, who often cares for her. Now they are adults. I really enjoyed this book and found myself having to read in shorter and shorter spurts about halfway through because I could see the train wreck coming and it was intense. This was my first book by this author, but it will not be my last.

It's been a hot minute since I picked up one of Sally's books and my goodness how I've missed them. 

I flew through this book in a day, I couldn't put it down. It was wonderfully written and Fern was just such a beautiful character. Her sensory issues were beautifully talked about and her relationship was lovely to read. 

An absolute must read ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
