I was looking forward to reading this book. I was in the mood for a good physiological thriller. Yet, I struggled early on with this book. The sisters were fine but there was nothing interesting about them. Also, the story started moving out slowly. I kept waiting for the story to pick up but it was mot moving fast enough for me. My reading speed of this book was more of a stop and go. After doing this several times, I personally could not go on further reading this book.

Sister of Mine by Laurie Petrou is a thriller that follows sisters Penny and Hatty who are bound together by the secrets of their troubled pasts that they can’t escape or let anyone know about. I was unimpressed with this novel. The premise sounded interesting, but it did not read as a thriller or a mystery at all. By a quarter of the way through the novel, I wanted to put this book down, but I kept reading so I could give a fair review. The twists were very predictable. All the characters lacked depth and I couldn’t sympathize any of them. The writing style was easy to read, but for the whole time, I was just rushing so I could read my next novel. This book ended up being unmemorable. I would recommend skipping reading this book.

This book was such a pleasant surprise for me. All the main characters are awful but it's still such a page turner! I cannot believe this doesn't have a higher rating.

It's unique, well written, and above all unhinged.
