My sister's Shadow is a Gothic suspense set in 1904 England. Adelaide and Victoria are beautiful mirrored twins, but their personalies are polar opposite. As Adelaide makes friends and becomes more independent and sure of herself, Victoria grows more and more hateful and resentful and things turn very dark. This is not a cozy but it was an overall good book. I especially loved the ending.

I really enjoyed this book! It gave me Great Gatsby vibes, but in a gothic, twisted sort of way. I loved the main character, Adelaide, and felt so frustrated and angry as things continued to happen to her out of her control. I would've liked it a bit more if the narrator was a bit more unreliable, or we got more into her sister and husband's motivations and perspective, though. This historical fiction was such a captivating blend of jealousy, lies, betrayal, love, sisterhood, and feminine rage. It did not completely go where I thought it was going to go, either, and I liked the ending. There were some small formatting/structure errors in my E-book but it didnt detract from how great the storytelling was. Would recommend!

I will post on my Instagram and Storygraph a little closer to the publication date!! But I have rated on goodreads and Amazon.

This book was quite anticlimactic and boring. I feel like the mental institution came out of nowhere, and the ending was abrupt.
