Fascinating,very very entertaining book about two sisters and their love, hate relationship.
Being evacuees,from Hungary,should have made them best friends,but jealously and the circumstances of their lives,made them anything but.
Secret agents,secret meetings and long kept family secrets make this book an enjoyable read.
You will quickly get involved as the plot thickens and anticipate the turn of each page.
Would highly recommend to anyone who loves Historical Fiction.

Jill Treseder’s My Sister, Myself is a poignant reminder that familial ties are inextricably linked and interdependent. Set in the 1940s through to the 1970s, Treseder balances the prejudice, passion, rebellion and retribution against acts of restoration, salvation, understanding and acceptance faced by a migrant family seeking refuge from the horrors of war-torn Hungary. Compulsive reading.

I received an advanced copy of this book through Netgalley in exchange for an honest review. This book had me on the edge of my seat the whole time! It was definitely a book that kept you thinking! I would definitely recommend this book to fellow readers. Thank you!

Jill Treseder provides a rich, multilayered tapestry in this story of two sisters' complex relationship as they grow from children to adulthood. Set in Hungary, Austria and England, each young woman's character develops as each confronts many external and internal challenges. The author intertwines historical drama, family conflict, mystery, and coming of age elements. At the heart of the novel, however, is the sisters' love-hate battle with each other. It is simultaneously compelling, frustrating and rewarding. Definitely recommend!! #My Sister, Myself #NetGalley

This intriguing historical novel is about the complicated relationship between sisters. 'My Sister, Myself' by Jill Treseder takes place in Britain after the sisters and their family fled from Hungary in 1956. The Hungarian Revolution had begun, Russian tanks were in the streets trying to crush the Communists. The family was forced to flee from Hungary because their father was an underground reporter for the resistance. Their father was a wanted man. Shortly after their arrival in London, the girls found that they just did not fit. While struggling to assimilate into their new life their dad was murdered. The strain of moving to London and the revelation of family secretes fragmented Katalin's and Marika's relationship. Both girls were sent to a private school where the sister's relationship became even worse. Katalin and Marika hated each other. Katalin was an ambitious student with hopes of becoming a dancer and Marika was an unholy terror. Eventually Marika was kicked out of private school. With the help of an aunt, Marika finished school. Katalin struggled, she was not able to bond with her aunt. Both girls lives were a mess. 'My Sister, Myself' followed both sisters into their adulthood. I liked how the author related to the sisters giving the reader an insight into the psychology of each girls behavior. I did not particularly like Katalin or Marika but I understood them. This well written novel gave me an appreciation of the struggles that these sisters faced. NetGalley sent me this book in exchange for an honest review. Thank you it was a great read.

I gave this book a 5 out of 5 star review. It was an enjoyable and I would recommend. to others. Generously provided to me through NetGalley

I loved this story. It was an intriguing family story about a girl and her sister and how the are so different, yet so much alike. They struggle to get along and stay connected when they're lives are seemingly falling apart in different ways.

It is a beautiful story of not knowing what you have until it's gone and how the connections you make in life can change how you view the people and the world around you.
