Fantastic addition to the collection for one of of our most popular authors in our middle school library! As a Mom of identical twin girls, I appreciated the different voices of the main characters. Full of suspense and twists, readers are going to line up to read this new one.

Big thanks to Netgalley and Scholastic for the advanced reading copy!

This was a really fun story that kept me on edge throughout the entire time. I love what K.R. Alexander did with the premise, and overall, it felt like a twisted lost episode of Are You Afraid of the Dark.

Alexander tipped the premise on its head quite quickly, and I appreciate how we wasted no time jumping into the chaos. Immediately we establish that Chelsea still talks to her deceased twin, and after the first couple of chapters, we're thrust into both existential dread and eerie antics that never fail to slow down.

My favorite aspect of the book was the dual POV between the two twins (one who's alive, and one who's narrating from the other side). Although Angela's perspective could feel a bit redundant at times, being able to hear her scheming every other chapter added a chilling layer of suspense.

The book seemed to end abruptly (there are a few pages omitted from my ARC - not sure if that is an extended ending or a preview of the author's next work?) but I was still a fan of how it all wrapped up. Indentikill effortlessly blended great scares with themes of grief, jealousy, and overcoming toxic relationships for young readers. I'm really excited to see how fans of Alexander's other work will respond to it, and look forward to his future works!

Can a twin be your best friend and your worst enemy…even after their death?
This middle grade horror book answers that exact question.

Identikill highlights a young girl’s struggle with the death of her twin sister and recounts an odd, paranormal story that keeps you engrossed in the tale throughout the book. The book is a quick read and yet still full of detail. The ending…not what you would expect!

This is an excellent book for teens and young adults who enjoy a suspenseful story. There are excellent lessons to be learned about good and evil; really making you think. I highly recommend this book, which is read easily and truly enjoyable! Huge thank you to Net Galley and Scholastic for allowing me to review this amazing book!

This was such a good book! I do wish I'd realized it was the start of a series. At least it felt like the first of a series. I think a bit more showing of Chelsea and Angelica's life before one died, plus more story about the one twin's life without the other would have made this a 5 star read. As it is, I felt a bit ambivalent at the beginning. I was interested, but I didn't really care about the characters until much further in and then the story ended just as I was getting there. I feel like I missed an entire book before reading this one.

I really enjoyed this book, it had everything that I was looking for and had that spirit that I enjoyed from books from my childhood. The overall story worked well and enjoyed the suspense of the dead twin versus the one that lived. It had that plot and character development perfectly and worked with the story. K. R. Alexander always does a great job in a middle-grade horror novel.
