This was a great graphic novel! There is a very specific bond between twins but there is so much that more to each individual person. In this book, Maureen and Francine are battling their feelings of wanting to be individuals while also not wanting to break their twin bond. I think this book brings up some great issues many siblings have about wanting to be just as good as the other at something but not wanting to admit it. This jealousy or "competitiveness" can also be found with best friends as well. I think that many readers can relate, whether they are a twin or not. I kind of wish the book was a little longer and delved a bit deeper into some of the feelings the two were hiding from the other but overall I really enjoyed it!
