This is my first First Impression entry, thanks to my book friend CJ (Coffee N Crackers). What a great idea!
Her Fearful Symmetry by Audrey Niffenegger
The blurb says:
Julia and Valentina Poole are normal American teenagers - normal at least, for identical 'mirror twins' who have no interest in colege or jobs or possibly anything outside their cosy suburban home. But everything changes when they recieve notice that an aunt whom they didn't know existed has died and left them her flat in an apartment block overlooking Highgate Cemetery in London.....
1st line:
Elspeth died while Robert was standing in front of a vending machine watching tea shoot into a small plastic cup.
The cover:
The cover is awesome. With a haunting feel and the 2 twins as if caught in the act of hiding some dark secret.
The story
So far everything is a bit hazy (I've only read 3 chapters), but someone is dead and someone has been left behind. The characters seem to be very well thought out. I am still trying to get a feel of the book.
Advanced star rating:
I am guessing that this will be a 3-4 star book.
Thanks CJ, this was fun!
