I really wasn’t sure how I felt about this especially at the beginning I thought what is going on. So glad I stuck with it cause it turned out to be a great read. It was rollercoaster of a read once it got going I thought it was written well with well developed characters and will definitely be encouraging people to read this. Thanks to netgalley and the publisher for my advanced copy.

"Which Child" by Shayne Spyre is his debut thriller that tells the story of Sarah who has four identical daughters. Rose, Daisy, Violet, and Poppy wear colored ribbons to tell them apart. The daughters, when they are four years old, are separated from each other by an envious childless woman. After many years, the three sisters are accused of various crimes such as shoplifting and later on murder.

The book is based on an interesting concept, but the development in the book feels somewhat dull. The characters are not well-developed and they are very difficult to like. The suspense about the identity of the sister who committed the murder is built in a rather confusing manner. The writing and character development are a bit weak, but the plot is interesting and you may find yourself sticking with it to find out which child is the murderer. On the whole, I really wanted to like this book, but the book ended up just being a mediocre read for me.

Thank you to The Book Folks, and NetGalley for allowing me to read and review this book.

I found this book very confusing and strange. I was not believable at all. The story line jumped around a lot.
A story of 4 girls one who gets kidnapped but no one really seems to do anything. 4 years later after any trace of her has been erased from life a dead girl surfaces who brings everything back to life.
I can’t really say I would recommend this book at all. I wasn’t very impressed with anything in the book. But that is just my personal opinion. Thank you NetGalley for the opportunity to review the book

Sarah and her husband have four identical daughters. Until Sarah is forced at gunpoint to give one of them away.
Years later, the taken child is found dead in an alley. One of the others is guilty of killing her. But which one?


Nope. Sorry, this novel is just too confusing for my tastes.
I didn't find it well written, or gripping.
The dialogue is stilted, and it is hard to keep up with the story when there is another child that is introduced, never mind the girls swapping identities.

I didn't like it, but some people will love this complicated novel.

Thanks to Netgalley and The Book Folks for the opportunity to read this book.

I read this book in one sitting. It kept me up last night. Don’t miss out on this book. I highly recommend this to Thriller lovers.

The book is so messed up, unputdownable, mind blowing and unsettling. There are four Identical sisters and Mrs Greene had to give one of her child to a childless woman. Daisy was only four years old when Mrs Greene asked her to sit in a strange woman’s car. Since then she is keeping a secret from Rose, Poppy and Violet. Now seven years later, detective comes and tells her that two of her daughters were found shoplifting and one is the killer among them and one is missing. Since they are identical, it’s hard to figure out who is the killer and who is missing. But the mystery gets deep when Lily comes from nowhere. It makes their parents think If there was a fifth daughter.

The narration is gripping. The writing is compelling. In the midst of lies, deception and secrets, It’s becoming hard to differentiate between truth and a lie. The book has twists and turns. This book kept me on the edge of my seat. After reading each one of their confession, It became chaotic for me but one of my assumption was right. The ending was so messed up and unpredictable.

Thank you Author, Publisher and Netgalley.
