In Twin Tides, Aria and Caliste live very different lives. Aria goes to Georgetown, hangs out with best guy friend/crush Phillip and struggles to make ends meet since her Aunt Thu is in poor health. Caliste is a wealthy influencer in California who has frenemies not friends and strained relationships with her dad, her stepmother and her Grandma. What is missing from both their lives is their mother- a woman who has been missing and presumed dead for years. They finally get a phone call that her body has been found in Minnesota- in a town they did not know that they had ties to. They arrive at the local police station at the same time and realize that they are twins who have been separated for years, with not one adult in their lives ever mentioning the other. It’s obvious that their family has a lot of secrets and that the death of their mother is tied to something bigger and more sinister than they can imagine.

I did end up enjoying this book although the first 80 pages are pretty slow. I thought the story had interesting supernatural elements. I did not think that the antagonist of the story was written very well - the character was just a basic villain.
