well this book is alright! I really like this book because I can kind of relate to Abby. She is so insecure of herself like I am. Even though she thought that she was unimportant next to her sister, she shouldn't feel like she is nothing in this world but yea i guess is good that she finally found that someone that understands her.

Abby has always lived in her big sister's shadow and she okay with that. That is until the car accident which leaves her sister Tess in a coma. 

As Abby tries to wake up her sister she has to deal with the truth: she doesn't really know her. Abby searches through the past to discover the real Tess and along the way she starts to realise that she wasn't all that perfect...

This was my first Elizabeth Scott Novel and I can say that I will be reading more of her work in the future. 

I found that the main character Abby hard to love at some points because she had no self-confidence and no sense of self-worth. Through the book she is constantly comparing herself to Tess. It was a bit eerie because I, at one point in my life, felt like her and if I tell the truth still do a bit. It was creepy how Scott created a character so real and truthful.

Scott's writing style also brought me further into the story. Her dialogue and description seemed so right together and it all fit together like a puzzle.

This book seems to tackle a lot of issues such as race, personality, sexuality and many more. It showed in all the characters. They were all so diverse and in the story they all had their own place. I like when an writer is truthful with their characters and doesn't paint them as unrealistic people, this book delivered on this point.

A great story that will stick in your mind and make you think. I highly recommend it even if you aren't into the whole genre. Branch out a little! Go crazy! Read this book... 

Love the cover. Seems inspirational like the story.
