Why I Choose this Book
I liked the fact that it was a story about sisters, and it was a short read.
What I thought about the book
It’s a story about twin teenagers named Sarah and Annie. Sarah has an anxiety disorder and Annie has gained weight, and had a personality change. She holds a deep secret Their parents are in denial that the twins need serious help.
This book has some deep thoughts coming from Annie
She puts herself down and has really low self-esteem
Made me think of a lot of times when you see teens acting the way she does.
Another eye opener for parents.
I recommend parents to read it and kids especially girls would love it.
