Strange!

Well I am left having read this book and still not knowing if I enjoyed it or not? Glad I read it, however not at all what I expected from the synopsis! It starts off as an enjoyable and amusing read but personally I found as it progressed that it became rather a sinister story.

I'm glad this book was recommended to me otherwise I would never have picked it up. The blurb does not do justice to the depth and sensitivities of the novel and topics touched upon - it makes it appear to be a lighthearted read. An emotional and poignant insight into the lives of twins, mixed cultural heritage, growing up and depression.

Difficult to get in to and then frankly a little dull

There's a story in there, somewhere, but it really does take an age for it to come out. It's very 'sensitive' though if you like that kind of thing.

Story about the Hunter family living at no 26a in Neasden, originating from Nigeria.
Mum finds it hard to settle in England,husband is a character and the children are adorable.
The changes that the twins go through as they grow up also showing us about the bond that twins can share especially when they decide to do thier own thing. Also focusing on the other members of the family.
Very easy to read, with pages full of comedy and a little bit that will make you shed a tear!
Great book !!!

I have just finished this book, and found it very thought provoking, as it focuses on twin girls growing up in London, in a mixed race family, they are joined together all the time as twins usually are. I would recommend this as an easy but quite sad read
