The Midnight Twins Jacquelyn Mitchard

Midnight Twins is not nearly as interesting as the synopsis makes it out to be. The concept is great, the idea has the potential to make a great book but this work of fiction is beyond boring. Turning each pages was burdensome and many times I was about to give up but I forced myself to finish this novel. The writing seems forced and it never grabs your full attention. The idea behind the story is original and perhaps that is why I kept on reading it but do yourself a favor and don't waste your time reading this book. It will be a LONG time before I pick up another book by Mitchard.

  Grade: F

Synopsis
Meredith and Mallory Brynn are mirror twins born on either side of midnight one snowy New Y ear's Eve. They have always been inseparable. But after they are nearly killed in a mysterious fire on their thirteenth birthday, the bond that has always joined them unravels. They begin to have visions and dreams that reveal the deep secrets kept by the people around them. Meredith and Mallory realize they have each been given a gift: Mallory can see deep into the past; Meredith can see the future. But when they discover that one boy is not what they imagined, their lives will be changed forever. If they can survive . . .
