Her Perfect Twin is a brilliantly twisty tale that will leave your jaw-dropping as you turn the pages. I could not drag myself away from this lockdown thriller. When the lockdown was first imposed, we all found ourselves sitting at home wondering how other people were coping. This book tells a lockdown story that will have you reeling.

Sarah Bonner has delivered a truly mind-blowing debut novel with Her Perfect Twin. She tells her story in various parts, from different characters perspectives allowing one to experience events from different angles. I could not put this book down. I cannot wait to see who this author comes up with next. I will eagerly be waiting for her next novel.

Megan grew up with an identical twin who wanted and took everything she had. When she finds a picture of her sister on her husband’s phone Megan is furious. In search of answers, she visits her estranged sister. When Leah confirms that she has been having an affair with Chris, the ensuing argument turns to murder.

The only way Megan can get away with murder is to become Leah. Her new double life proves challenging, but when lockdown hits, she has no idea how to live two lives.  Discovering that someone knows her secret is the last thing she needs.

This is an incredibly twisty tale that had me hooked from start to finish. The author weaves a complex web as she gives you various characters perspectives, never allowing the reader to see what is coming. I loved the twists and turns.

Megan is a wonderfully crafted character that left me loving her while I questioned some of her actions. The author created this complex woman with remarkable detail allowing you to bond with her and support even her worst choices. My heart broke for this insecure, damaged woman and just like that she turns around and shows remarkable strength that left me in awe. There is not a single thing you can fault about the creation of this character.

I loved this story and I gladly gave this book a five-star rating. Her Perfect Twin is one of the best debut novels I have read. I found myself fully engrossed in this book from start to finish. I cannot wait to see what Sarah Bonner send our way next.

Thriller fans are in for a treat when they reach for this book. While it is a lockdown story, it does not focus on the pandemic. It is incredibly twisty and beautifully wrapped up leaving you fully engrossed from start to finish. If you are looking for a complex, twisty tale that will have you reading late into the night – Then I cannot recommend this book highly enough.
