Love it! Think I may have found me a new favorite author! Looking forward to reading more of her work!

This is a book that I’ve had laying around for ages. I hadn’t realised I’d requested this on Netgalley, I’d had it on my shelves too.

I wish I had read this ages ago, I really loved the handle on this story.

Sad to start with, thinking of yourself carrying twin girls but knowing you could only keep one. How does a mother decide that?

The girls were very different in needs and personality straight away. Polar opposite.

We find that the father of these girls was a nasty piece of work.
She hopes this won’t follow in the girls genetic makeup.


The story was fascinating, entertaining, enjoyable I actually loved it more than I expect to. So bonus.

Was it predictable?
Yes
But it was just compulsive reading.

The very thought of having to choose which twin to give up for adoption is mind-boggling and to have that choice come back to haunt you is even more harrowing. The premise of this book caught my eye immediately and I had hoped that the internal struggles and repercussions of Jane's decisions would make for a thrilling read.

The story itself was very good but for some reason I found it very difficult to connect to the characters overall. As the story went on, seemingly pitting twin against twin, the story was interesting but I didn't feel the characters were as gripping as I'd hoped. Still, I enjoyed the plot and liked the book as a whole.

I have never read Rosalind Noonan before and while this wasn't one of my favorites, I would be more than willing to read something else by her. The idea behind the novel was excellent and I would be interested to see what else Noonan has to offer.
