Double Dare
From TV stars Tia and Tamera Mowry comes Double Dare, the third book in their popular Twintuition series about the super-special—and sometimes supernatural—bond between sisters!
Identical twins Cassie and Caitlyn Waters may be able to see into the future, but with a teacher who suspects they have powers waiting to catch them midvision and the grandmother they just met in town to teach them how to better control what they foresee, the last thing they need is more trouble.
Luckily, a class-wide game of Truth or Dare has begun and the twins are having fun competing. When a vision shows the girls’ friend getting hurt, Cassie and Caitlyn know that they’re the only ones who can prevent it.

November 25, 2024Double Dare
Grandma Lockwood has just arrived and says it’s time for the twins to learn their history (despite their mothers protest). She says she’s going back to her hotel to get settled in but she’ll pick them up tomorrow for brunch. While Cassie is standing there she has a vision of her grandmother on the phone. After she leaves, Cassie confronts her mom-after she gets off the phone with her aunt. She’s heard saying she’s just trying to protect them so the same thing won’t happen to them as it did-and asks will they be allowed to go to the brunch. Their mom says she won’t stop them. Maybe she shouldn’t even try to protect them anymore (she says). (Grandmother asks the twins if they have the talisman-it wasn’t with the other things that got sent back-. Caitlyn says she has it. Grandmother tells her to watch over it and not let anything happen to it.
While talking about Grandma Lockwood later, Caitlyn has a vision of Cassie jumping (dancing) around in the cafeteria. The next morning, their grandmother picks them up in a limo. Her mother briefly has a word with her before they leave. The most important things we learn from the brunch are 1) Grandmother Lockwood doesn’t have the sight. Her brother-in-law did 2) The twins father John Thompson Lockwood *did* have the sight 3) Something happened to him that neither their mom or Grandma want to say presently. 4) The twins last name use to be Lockwood but there mom dropped it after what happened to their father. 5) Now that their 12 the visions will start being more intense. 6) They have several cousins. Grandma abruptly says she has to go and will meet with them again the next day.
The talk of school that next day is “Truth or Dare” (which is a trend started by the high school students) and the upcoming class trip to San Antonio. Mrs. Xavier calls Caitlyn to speak to her in homeroom and tells her she wants to meet with her and Cassie after school. Caitlyn has a vision of her in a dark room with skulls and glowing candles. She’s on an alter and there’s someone leaning over her in a dark hood. At lunch, Cassie has a vision of Emily on a stretcher.
Mrs. X tells the twins she has a little bit of ESP and sensed there was something special about them. She says that Gabrielle told her he overheard them saying they touched each other and had a vision and they could read each others thoughts. He said they spoke as if they were having problems with what they saw so he came to her. Then Caitlyn has a vision of Mrs. X hanging Megan a box with a green and gold vision. Mrs. X catches this but Caitlyn tries to cover by saying she was just thinking the twin project might be fun. As long as they don’t have to include the *extra* stuff. Mrs. X agrees to leave that to the written paper and the oral will just be about famous twins in history.
On the way out, they run into Gabe who says he “did them a favor”. Grandma L arrives just as Mom has to go to work. Caitlyn and Cassie have a shared vision of a skinny, tall, man with a camera around his neck. He’s looking through the trash and holds up something shiny. Grandma says it’s time for them to find out what level their at in their powers and what they know. She’s brought the diary and says she wants to return it to them. Grandma L makes them go over all the visions they’ve had so far. Two in particular seem to concern her. The first was the one of the man that looked like their father around Christmas. The other was the way they had of them talking to Mrs. X that they say just happened.
When they tell her they think their teacher is onto them, Grandma scolds them for being careless. This makes Caitlyn angry and she defends them and storms off outside. Cassie realizes this was one of her visions. Grandma l apologizes and says it wasn’t either of their faults, says she’ll handle the teacher, and then leaves. The next day Mrs. X is absent. Caitlyn has a vision of Lavender and Buzz kissing somewhere dark on the school trip after Buzz dares Lavender to wear her gym suit all day.
The next time they see Grandma L she teaches them about the Lockwood history. Mom is called away by a text saying there’s a meeting at work. Grandma then teaches the twins how to work with focus items. Which are items that have been used by a Lockwood who has visions. This gives the item extra strength. She’s brought their father’s scarf. When touching it, the twins have a vision of two random men by a window. Only Caitlyn notices one of the men as the man who was in the vision with her mother. Mom comes back angry that Grandma tricked her and was the one that sent the text to get her out of the way.
At school, Liam has a dare to let his friends paint his face like his favorite comic hero. He then gives Caitlyn a truth or dare. At first she picks truth, but he asks why she’s been avoiding talking about the class trip. So, she picks dare. His dare to her is to while blind-folded identify their classmates by their faces. While touching Lavender’s she has a vision of her being pulled somewhere by someone unseen. The last face she feels turns out to be the substitutes. Mrs. X still isn’t there. But that has to be a coincidence. Right?
Cassie has a vision of Caitlyn helping Brayden up the steps of the bus while talking to him. Then she has another vision of Caitlyn and her friends looking at Emily’s locker which has a bunch of cards on it. It’s noted that Mrs. Xavier is absent again. At school, Cassie gets dared to do an interpretive dance in the cafeteria of a popular song. After school, Al takes them to Grandma L’s hotel. She has some other focus objects, but none work. It’s found out that she didn’t have permission to take the twins but they’re allowed to stay. They then have a vision. Caitlyn’s is of a lady by the same trashcans yelling. Cassie’s is of a man in a grungy, silk, bathrobe in an elegant dinning room eating sardines. It’s the first time they’ve had different visions. The twins say maybe they should ask Mrs. X but Grandma says no need. She’s dealt with that little problem. She then takes them home, hugs them, and tells them she might not see them for a while. She has to go away. (Her talking on the phone was another vision that happened).
She gives them an email address to contact her. At school, the rumors fly about Mrs. X’s absence. Some say she joined a cult. Later, Cassie finds out Brent has a dare for Emily but Brayden isn’t saying what. Cassie has a vision of Lavender throwing a magazine at Caitlyn with posters of girls with loud colored hair in the background. That night, Caitlyn dreams of Grandma talking to a bunch of ghost with voices that sounded like buzzing, a voodoo witch doctor doing weird experiments on Mrs. X and Emily, and hanging on to a long black braid to avoid falling into a deep pit.
The next morning, Caitlyn has a vision of her mom crying and holding something shiny. Her aunt Cheryl is there with her. At school they notice Mrs. X is still gone. Cassie thinks of the coincidence of the man in her vision also holding something shiny. She goes to the library and finds Caitlyn also there. She emails her grandmother that if she doesn’t tell them what happened to their teacher they’ll have to tell their mother (whose a cop). Then Cassie realizes why Brent was coming down the hall with a skateboard and gets the principal to stop Emily’s dare in time to prevent an accident.
Brent wanted her to prove how good she was at snowboarding. The principal ends the game and says anyone else he catches playing it at school will be suspended and no class trip.
Brayden gives Cassie one last date. To be his partner for the bus trip. In the end, they find out from a video email that Mrs. X got an opportunity to go on a voodoo study. Their grandmother responds back that she knows they heard from their teacher, and in the future don’t threaten her. Then she says the class trip will be dangerous so they should cancel. Caitlyn gets a vision of their grandmother hugging the shabby man. Caitlyn tells Cassie she thinks their father might still be alive.
My Thoughts
With this one, I felt like Cassie and Caitlyn were absolutely right! This woman told very little of importance. She did tell them a little about their dad and that he got visions from them, but that was about it. I don’t really feel like she helped them do anything they couldn’t have eventually discovered on their own. They’d already figured out touching the key (necklace) made their visions stronger. They just didn’t know the explanations and theories behind it. Thus, I really don’t see what her purpose was. Actually, she struck me as kind of shady like there’s just something about her. Maybe how she keeps vanishing so abruptly all the time.
The “Truth of Dare” game I wasn’t as interested in as I was learning a little more about the twins’ abilities. Therefore, I felt it just got in the way of the story. At times the story did feel overwhelming because the visions keep coming in this one back-to-back to back-to-back (and they never slowed). Although we were warned they’d get more intense. I do hope that in the next one we get a little bit more than this one. This one just felt like a lot of build up that didn’t really go anywhere.

Okay this one was better but I felt like it was dragging on too long and not revealing much. For instance it’s clear there’s something fishy about the grandmother and she’s not telling the twins. And whenever the twins touch each other and get a vision, I don’t understand why they always yank away from each other and interrupt the vision. Wouldn’t it make sense to keep contact for as long as possible to increase the amount of time to view the vision? Even though the conclusion is in the fourth book, I feel like this could be a series of books, or even a tv show of some sort. They’re so young and there’s so many possibilities to extend and expand.

Another fun book in this series - I won the first three, and thought that was all of them. But the story isn't finished in this one, so I'll have to see if I can find another.
One complaint with this series is that neither the mother or the Grandmother seem very kind or loving. Both are super strict and seem more concerned with getting their way than or pushing their own agenda than worrying about the twins.

Seemed more intense than the first two. Was a bit annoying how the grandmother never seemed to stay very long and didn’t really give much “training” during her visits. Dragged out the book too much-almost like it was meant to be part of another book, but the publisher wanted to stretch the story into more books. In any case, it is a cliff hanger and I will be looking for the next book in the series.

This book was very easy to get through and I enjoyed it quite a bit. This was the first one I read in the series because I found it at the library, but I still found it very easy to understand and I didn't feel lost at all. Some of the visions that Cassie and Caitlyn had were weird and creepy, and made me shiver. Out of the two twins, I liked Caitlyn more, just because she was a little different from popular Cassie.

What a cliffhanger! I can't wait until read the next book.

Such a big cliff hanger. I never ever would have guessed that Ms. X got offered a voodoo job by grandmother Lockwood.

My favorite series of all time!!! Totally recommend!

Questions got answers there were a lot of visions and the characters were all very goofy

Cute relationships: sisters and mom. Complex and loving - well done!
One sister is kinda a bully. The dad is/isn’t? Dead? Grandma is good/evil?

The plottwist at the end is interesting, this was mainly about dares and learning a bit more about their visions.

Except when Cassie keep demanding what Caitlyn saw every time she touched her. Can't wait for next book!
