Read all on one day; it gripped me. I'd have given it a 4, but for me it weakened a bit at the end. Definitely a 3.5 at least. I didn't like her previous "The Girls", but am glad I gave her a second chance.

First book by author. Started slow but built into a wonderful story of conjoined twins. The story is written as a autobiography. A rich story.
