I’m a sucker for a book about twins and this one did not disappoint. Both of the characters and very interesting and the writers style captured me from the get go. A great story and written very well.

Amazing book!
I was thoroughly engaged throughout this book and I didn't want to put it down! The author captured my attention from the get go! Five stars from me :)

A great story of identical twins who loved each other excluding everyone else even their other and how they found their own lives. Very sensitive telling, characters well rounded. Loved them both.

A coming of age story about twin girls, who start out attached to each other a bit too much, but by stories end have found their way beautifully as individuals.
Lovely story, solid 4 stars from me.
Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for allowing me to read this ARC

Helen and Clemmy are an interesting pair and this book really makes you think about the nature of the twin relationship. The author has a lovely writing style, making even the dark subject matter quite beautiful.

Wow! This felt like so much more than a thriller. It's one of those books that captivates you and the writing style is descriptive in a way that really draws you in and evokes a response. A very original and unique book. Creepy, unexpected and unconventional

Unfortunately i really struggled with this book. Was disappointed as was looking forward to it. Found it really creepy! I think depending on what mood you are in others will enjoy it. It just wasnt for me unfortunately. But thanks Net Galley

This is beautiful and creepy. I have to be honest here. The writing was perfection but it made me feel way too much. Likely because I have my own weird twins. I was completely absorbed, which is wonderful due to my covid brain, but then I get too emotional.
Art is supposed to make you feel something but this was too much for me. Again because I have twins and not because it isn't the best book.

This is a story lit with the colour and force of grand narrative. It's a story that grips with compelling emotional depth. Every word counts, every detail shaped with enormous care. The writing is tender, potent, acerbic; the plot is surprising, shocking, tragic; but also elegant and enchanting.
The forest as a backdrop is mysteriously alive. Helen and Clemmy are drawn with singular grace and beauty, but can also be bitter and destructive. They are characters clearly determined to never be forgotten.
The luminous quality of the forest is at odds with London's brash kaleidoscopic multitude of streets full of anonymous people.
Sandy Hogarth's novel is brilliantly unconventional and utterly dazzling.

I really enjoyed this book, it was well written with a compelling story and well developed characters. It was full of atmosphere and unpredictability
