Lori Lansens has written a few books and one of my favourite things about her is every book is different. Many authors stick to similar topics when they write fiction, but with Lori Lansens each book is so unique.

Did you enjoy reading Lori Lansens? Would you read any of her other books?

To live life as a conjoined twin would bring challenges - yet Ruby and Rose are such strong characters that live their life. One of the most beautiful things about these characters is that they are glad they are joined together forever in life. Uncle Stash and Aunt Lovey are also something.

What did you think of the characters in the book? How do you think you would feel if you had to live every part of your life alongside someone?

The Girls by Lori Lansens - A fictional book about conjoined twins told in their voice. Different, strong personalities for each twin in their own way.

Thoughts on the book and the autobiography style the author chose to use? Did you find the story flowed well? Any general thoughts on the book?

Reading this for #OhCanada in the shade of the cherry trees in Brooklyn Botanic Garden. 🌸 The trees are dropping all their petals and it‘s like it‘s raining pink! So beautiful but impossible to capture properly.

Ruthiella Perfect. I‘m a little behind and need to catch up. Hopefully I will be done with The Girls on Sunday. 🤞 (edited) 2d
Jess861 @Ruthiella Perfect - I'm not exactly sure when I'll post discussions this weekend as it'll be whenever I get some time free from the kiddos. I don't expect a lot of activity on this book and jumping in anytime works of course :) - I'll make sure to mark as a spoiler if there is anything given away in the discussion point! 1d

Book review catch-up post 4 of 5:

This one didn't resonate with me as much as I expected it to, but it was engaging. There were a few loose ends that I wish had been explained. I would read more by Lansens, so overall I liked it. #ohcanada

Just over a week left and I'm excited to discuss with those who are interested. I'll post a few discussion points in the afternoon of Saturday, May 3rd - which gives everyone a few extra days. Weekdays are too busy with the kiddos - so going forward I'll post discussion points on the Saturday after month end if that works for everyone. If there is anything specific you are interested in discussing please feel free to comment here. #OhCanada
