starrysea98 's review for:
The Other Lives of Miss Emily White
by A.J. Elwood
the premise of this book is very interesting - doppelgängers, mysterious happenings, drama among the girls and a gorgeous setting. however, it is all ruined by the protagonist, ivy. god i hate her. the only reason i suffered through her frankly annoying and self-righteous perspective was to understand everything. and even then, it was rather unsatisfactory of an ending. it fell flat for me, although it was momentarily saved by ivy’s mother’s reveal.
some other thoughts: some scenes were tedious and contributed nothing to the overall plot. ivy herself needs to be edited - her harping on that emily white is kind doesn’t make her kind in the readers’ eyes. it would have been interesting to see the other girls fleshed out. the only one with an actual personality is sophia but there were so many other girls there!
