Empathetic and dignified depiction of conjoined twins. Some other political views are out of date. Themes of what it means to be perceived as strange, and mother/daughterhood. I felt compelled to read it twice.

it's a 4.5 for me.
When I first read the blurb, I wasn't that interested... the life of conjoined twins made me think of pain and suffering and bullying. However, this is not it at all!
First off, it's not a true story. It's a fictional autobiography.
It's well written to allow the disorderly memories to flow.
It's funny, sad, humbling. I love the twins and their family.
I loved it and I highly recommend.

my favorite kind of book- fiction written in person, and so well, that you feel like you are having a conversation with the author

Wow. This book just blew me away. I feel like Rose and Ruby are my friends because the author was so masterful in how she let us get to know them.
