#springskies ( I am waiting for them!) #twins
My sister gifted me this book, her book club read. Sounds fascinating. I have a brother & sister who are twins- although not identical they have a special bond & look out for each other always.
pick#SpringSkies Day 6: While there are quite a number of sibling-themed books, only a few really explore #Twins. In Hyewon Yum‘s twin series, it appears that she is drawing from her own experience of being a twin, seeing how she dedicated this book to Misun, her twin sister. My review: https://wp.me/pDlzr-nAk
pickThanks, @Kar2b for my first birthday card! As a gift to myself, I‘ve decided to dive into nostalgia and re-read the entire Sweet Valley series! The last time I decided to do this, I fell off at 31 in the SVK series, so hopefully this time I make it through more— especially since I‘ve been collecting the ones that I didn‘t have so I am in for some new reads too! This seventh birthday is fun—& the chocolate cake with marshmallow icing sounds yummy!
pickMarion is born a conjoined twin in Addis Ababa. Family life gets off to a very rough start and from there we follow his life, to adulthood and onwards to New York. The joy of this book is the family love and complexities, against the background of troubled Ethiopia, its own complexities, and its medical world. In summary, I loved this when I first read it 10 years ago, and I then loved it again. Be warned, it will break your heart.
