Goodreads Summary:

A girl takes over her twin sister's identity in this emotionally charged page-turner about the complicated bond between sisters.

Ella and Maddy Lawton are identical twins. Ella has spent her high school years living in popular Maddy's shadows, but she has never been envious of Maddy. In fact, she's chosen the quiet, safe confines of her sketchbook over the constant battle for attention that has defined Maddy's world.

When—after a heated argument—Maddy and Ella get into a tragic accident that leaves her sister dead, Ella wakes up in the hospital surrounded by loved ones who believe she is Maddy. Feeling responsible for Maddy's death and everyone's grief, Ella makes a split-second decision to pretend to be Maddy. Soon, Ella realizes that Maddy's life was full of secrets. Caught in a web of lies, Ella is faced with two options—confess her deception or live her sister's life.

I snatched this one up when BookOutlet had their $5 off with no minimum purchase coupon~ I already read it as an ebook and loved it so I had to get a physical copy. I also want to mention that it was in perfect condition. Seriously just perfect! So happy~

The lovely people at Raincoast Books and Macmillan sent me an ecopy of this book. It took me a few tries to get it working but they have been very patient and understanding so thank you~ I'm especially excited to read it because it's about twins! I have a twin and I want to see how their relationship is portrayed in the book.
