You can find this book here in both physical and eBook formats.
"Remember daughter, the world is a lot bigger than anyone knows. There are things that science may never explain. Maybe some things that shouldn’t be explained."
Stacey and Laney are mirror twins; though their personalities and behaviours are completely different, no matter how much they look alike. Stacey works hard at school, determined to get out of their small town, whilst Laney skips school and sneaks out of the house to meet her boyfriend. But when Laney disappears one night, Stacey can’t believe she’s just run off without telling her.
Seeming to run off, things become harder for Stacey when she starts dreaming of her twin. The dreams are dark and terrifying, difficult to understand and hard to shake, but at least they tell Stacey one key thing: Laney is alive. No matter how hard this is for her to understand or grasp, Stacey knows that Laney needs her help. But will she be enough help? Can she find her sister in time to save Laney's life?
Most of this blurb is on the back of the book that you should read.
Stacey is a well-rounded character, and the tension of the happenings in the book melds well with a teenager that is trying to balance science with culture; fear with courage; taboos with action. The voice and language of Stacey works well and reads authentically; however, the setting is the 90s and right before Y2K (if YA readers even know about that time 😊). This may be hard to relate to for some, and easier for others.
Other than that, this is a solid read for youth and adult readers alike.
