The Vanishing Half by Brit Bennett

medium-paced
  • Strong character development? Yes

3.5

The Vanishing Half tells the story of inseparable twins who ultimately live vastly different lives. It brings to life how one generation effects the next and so on. It follows family, chosen family, lies, truths, and race. The writing was great, the audiobook narrator was great. It usually kept my interest, but didn't push me to keep reading. I think it dragged in the middle a little. The beginning of each section when you're getting all the new info, and the ending when everything is juxtaposed perfectly were the most interesting parts.
