Identical - Book Review

Title- Identical
Author- Ellen Hopkins
Number of Pages- 565
Genre- Literature and Fiction, Poetry.

Many teenagers have situations at home with their family members and at school with their peers, and I think this book does well with showing some very common situations which many teenagers experience. Identical, written by Ellen Hopkins, is about two twin teenagers who seem to have a great life. They're pretty, they have a nice home, and they have wealthy parents. But, their home isn't nearly close to perfect. Kaeleigh and Raeanne are sisters and are the twins that I just mentioned, and they have many issues in their family, mostly involving their mother and father. Their mother is well known, she's a politician, and their father is a well known lawyer, and has many secrets. 


I think that this book is very interesting most of the time. I would give it a rating of 6 out of 10 because it has some dull moments through out the book, and I lose interest and I stop paying attention to the story and eventually, I get confused. Some of the time there's very interesting parts where I can't stop reading, but usually that doesn't happen. However, I like this book because its very realistic. Absolutely everything that happens in this story could happen to anyone. I would recommend this book for young adults and older, not really for students or teenagers in middle school level, because it has some parts which would be inappropriate, and has parts that middle level students probably wouldn't be mature about. Furthermore, I think this is a very good story.
