Step - Twins

By: Alexis Michele Dingeldein

5 Hearts out of 5

Summary from GoodReads:

The identical step-sisters, Rachel and Lindsey, have turned sixteen and are enjoying some perks of high school; the basketball team, cheerleading, and, of course, the chess club. But their interest comes to a close as a faint memory awakens something their parents' past. Determined, Lindsey and Rachel set out to find the answers to their many questions. Unfortunately, someone they know and trust is working hard to ruin their family and their lives. Will they be able to recover the object they need to restore order and peace; even if risking the one they love? (GoodReads)

Find out why Step-Twins went straight to the top of my must read list:

Step-Twins opens a whole new world of figuring things out. It's quirky and sweet idea of having step-sisters who look like twins brings in so many ideas for planning, and furthermore bringing exciting adventures to this short, but satisfying read.

Step-twins, Rachel and Lindsey act like any sisters/twins. They argue, fight, and poke fun at one another, which helps readers to relate to the book easily. The girls are like any other normal sixteen year old girls, they do sports, hang out with friends, and attend clubs at school. Alexis Dingeldein brings these characters to life setting up a story like none other that I have read.

In a personal opinion of the book, the prologue set up it all perfectly. It was relatable, funny, a little cliché, but in a good way, and full of laughs. It was able to get the story moving, and really caught my attention. I fell in love with the storyline before I even finished the first page.

Dingeldein has an exceptional writing voice which tends to keep her readers on the edge of their seat wanting to know what happens next. As the story goes on you begin to see how all these lives and pasts are intertwined, and get little snippets before things happen.

The writing is phenomenal and can easily bring a reader in. If you are a little skeptical to read this story, I have one piece of advice for you, READ IT! After finishing this story, I can't wait to read the other books in this series, and continue to read Dingeldein's novels.

I only have one question Ms. Dingeldein, when is you next book coming out?

I will "see" you all soon!
