Mirrorland by Carole Johnstone

4.0

Identical twin sisters El and Cat invent Mirrorland out of their imagination, a place where they can find peace and make sense of the world. A cruel, dark world that no-one should ever have to endure. The downside of Mirrorland, with its cast of fantastical characters and adventures, is that reality and make belief, truth and lies, have the potential to blend into one another and muddy the waters.

When we are introduced to El and Cat, we learn of their estrangement, an estrangement that seems cruel and unfair considering how unbreakable of a bond they shared as children. Slowly the truth is revealed, through a rollercoaster of secrets, lies, emotions, and psychological suspense.

Mirrorland is a story about the power of love and the price of freedom in a world so cruel and twisted that one could never survive alone.
