The Mirror Sisters - Ghost Writer for VC Andrews Review



The 411:

Yes! This is written in a taboo breaking, gothic atmosphere but it stopped there. This didn't feel very V.C. Andrews like to me.  It took so long to get moving because we spend the first half of the book hearing about how very similar the girls are. I get it..the title is Mirror Sisters and the similarities could have been covered in a page.  Here's the thing...if it didn't have V.C. Andrews on the cover I would have zero expectations and read it as any other book but there is a legacy it needs to live up to and it didn't however the ending...was the perfect cliffhanger. Although the whole way through you basically know one sister is completely setting up the other and the one being set up is as described a very smart girl so where she ends up at the end of the first book in this trilogy is a little annoying. However, with that being said, if she completely didn't trust the one sister, we wouldn't have a trilogy.

Anyway. Haylee and Kaylee are the exact duplicate of each other in appearance but not in heart, attitude or brain. One is really manipulative and thinks nothing of hurting people and the other spends the whole book uncomfortable with the things that she is forced to accept and go along with but there is a reason for that. Their mother! Mom is a little crazy. She wants them to be the perfect duplicates of each other right down to hurting one because the other got hurt and this one must also have the same marking or they will not be perfect duplicates.

I won't give anymore away. It is an OK book. I didn't hate it but I didn't love it. Alone without the legends name I would be OK with it. When the second book comes out I do plan on reading it because the cliff hanger was intense and I really can't wait to find out what happens next.
