The Third Twin

The Third Twin by Cynthia Omololu, 328 pages

Identical twins. Identical DNA. Identical suspects. It's Pretty Little Liars meets Revenge in this edge-of-your-seat thriller with a shocking twist. IT STARTED AS A JOKE. When they were little, Lexi and her identical twin, Ava, made up a third sister, Alicia. If something broke? Alicia did it. Alicia was always to blame for everything. NOW THE GAME IS ALL GROWN UP. The girls are seniors, and they use Alicia as their cover to go out with guys who they'd never, ever be with in real life. But sometimes games just aren't worth playing. A boy has turned up dead, and DNA evidence and surveillance photos point to only one suspect--Alicia. The girl who doesn't exist. IDENTICAL TWINS. IDENTICAL DNA. IDENTICAL SUSPECTS. Ava insists that if they keep following the rules for being Alicia, everything will be fine. But Lexi isn't so sure. She must find the truth before another boy is murdered. BECAUSE EITHER AVA IS A KILLER . . . OR ALICIA IS REAL.’ I really liked this story.  I’ll admit that I guessed part of the ending pretty early in the story but I didn’t have all of it or any of the details.  This was well told and has enough suspense to keep teens reading until the end.
