Wow, this was a good book! It was like watching a Lifetime Channel drama/thriller movie. Intriguing from beginning to end!

I read Good Sisters to get into reading and it hasn't disappointed me at all. Rose and Fern were each other's support system when growing up, Rose protects her sister like crazy which drove me mad. I think because of this, I hated her for constantly being there for Fern and not giving her any independence. It was interesting to read that there were two stories about there mother one from Rose's perspective and another from Fern's perspective. The end was quite predictable, but I still quite enjoyed it.

The most shocking part about this book was that there was nothing surprising. Everything about this book was a connect the dots puzzle of a dog. We saw the numbers 1-50 and it just went along to form a basic dog.

This was a single sitting read for me.. 

I guessed the twists but I still really enjoyed the overall experience of the book. I loved the writing, it had me NEEDING to know what was going to happen. 

I ADORED Wally (Rocco), he's such an awesome, quirky, likeable character. All of the characters were great and I really liked the layers and intensity of the relationships.

This was my first Sally Hepworth book and it had me hooked! I couldn't put it down and I need more of her books ASAP!

It was a solid story focused on a sister’s dependency on her twin. It needed a little more drama or something to truly be a thriller, but at a high-level it was a cute story of a woman learning that others can provide accommodations and support for what makes her feel different in life.

Excellent portrayal of a person with Asperger's. It's a great thriller, loved every page of it!
