I finished GIRLS 1/1/11

My description:

This is Rose's story but it's also Ruby's story not everything that has happened to Rose has happened to Ruby but Ruby has been there from the very beginning and she will be there till the end. Rose and Ruby are sisters they are twins and they are Joined at the head. This is their story the story of Two sisters who have never been apart from each other but have lived two different lives.

My thoughts:

This is what i call a grown up book. In other words I didn't get it from the YA section where i get 98% of the books i read. It's written in two different but similar styles both are from the first person perspective Rose's bits are more what i call the adult style and it took me longer to get into her story then we hear from ruby she states that she is going to write to you (the reader) as her friend, so less like she is writing a book and more like she is telling a story. I'll admit i was interested in the book but it wasn't till i got to ruby's first part that i really got into the story but after that i was on a fact finding mission. the ending i've said it before and i will say it again i hate most endings! so my opinion on them is usually not fair to the author this one ended well my first thought when i finished was that there were so many lose ends that could have been tied up but i read another book before i got to posting about this one and now thinking back i actually like the way this one ended.

my rating:

8

I'm giving GIRLS and 8 only because it's not the type of book i would read again and there are not many people in my life that i automatically think hey you would love this book. my recommendation if you have any interest in conjoined twins then you should read this book though it is fiction it's believable and a good read.

Next up.........
