   Nenhum(a) Ainda não há conversas na Discussão sobre este livro.  tina1969 | Jun 18, 2020 |   The second body she stumbles across turns a tragic discovery into a rather shocking coincidence. It seems unbelievable that it could have happened to her twice but that is indeed the case. Could it be possible that she was meant to find both bodies? Well, to find that out you'll have to read the book but, let me tell you, I could never have imagined the turn that this book would take. As it progressed I started to get an inkling, but Elle Croft has written the story in such a way that it's impossible to second guess anything that's happening. You just have to go with the flow and see where the story takes you which is no bad thing at all. It's a very original storyline, slightly incredible as is the way with many psychological thrillers, but yet also completely possible. I loved the way the story jumped around between various points of view, that of Gina, Ryan, their mother back in 1996, and the detective investigating the two women's deaths. It enabled me to see the story from different angles. I still didn't know where it was going though! I found The Other Sister to be a gripping and thrilling read. I liked the characterisations, particularly Gina and her boyfriend, Julian, and the story was so clever, particularly the ending which blew my mind a little bit. All in all, a great read, one that kept me guessing from start to finish and one which I thought was unusual and skilfully plotted. (  ) nicx27 | Oct 21, 2018 | sem críticas | adicionar uma crítica

This book for me started so good. The story follows Gina and her brother Ryan. The story is told in chapters dedicated to each character in turn. Flashbacks to Gina and Ryan's childhood also contribute to the story.
When the story unfolds and it becomes apparent how things happened and how they were made to happen is where I began losing interest. The subject matter that is the 'how' is how really believable is it and can it really happen. I don't know much about it myself so can't really comment or judge, just found it a bit far fetched for my liking.
This book started out really good, I was interested and enjoying the book then for me it just went a complete unexpected way. (
