Bit of a Struggle
Better Together, inspired by The Parent Trap, is a book that I was very excited to read. I knew going in that I would need to suspend my disbelief to an extent (because, lets face it, even if your kids are identical twins - which these sisters are not - what kind of parent doesn't recognise that the teenager they've brought home isn't the same one they dropped off at Camp?) but even then, I found some of this book a little difficult to get behind.Jaime and Siri were both pretty annoying characters, and I didn't really care about either of them. The parents were awful (so actually, maybe they wouldn't recognise their own children? Not that it mattered given they had a strange "magical" disguise). There was an obligatory love interest for each girl, and again I wasn't totally convinced that this was the right book for there to be such a focus on romance - I wasn't it to be more about the family. In the end though, I didn't really care whether they were reunited or stayed separated, which I don't think was the intention!I made it to the end of the book, but it was a struggle to get there. I don't think it was a book for me!I received a copy from the publisher in exchange for an honest review.
