I throughly enjoyed this book. From beginning to end the author had me totally enraptured. 

I felt for both of the Vignes sisters. As you follow one twin who decided to live as a black person and the other who decided to live as a white. I ended up feeling for both and the ending of this book felt appropriate as well. 

The author made such smart decisions in writing. It is so well done! My only critique is that I want more.
