 "It will leave you in a state of shock"-Theresa



I borrowed this book from the library

Summary:
Two twin brothers at a young age decide to share one life.  They share the same career, wife, and family until one starts to lose his sanity.

Theresa's Thoughts:
I really, really loved this novel!  Simpson came up with a tale that keeps the reader riveted.  I could not put this book down, and when I was finished reading it I just sat in stunned shock.  At first, I didn’t like their wife because I couldn’t believe how stupid she was that she didn’t know one twin would come in and pretend to be her husband for periods at a time, but everything came together in the end, leaving the reader amazed.

I gave this book five stars and a grade of an A+.  This book was just off the charts. I liked it so much that I wrote the editor and publishers of the book, telling them how much I liked it and thought it would make a good movie.  I loved it that much!  I have never written editors or publishers of books before, but I felt compelled to do so on this one.  It was that good!
