this book sister was very surprising to me that tara thought that her parent loved mya more but mya had a condition which was why they always told her yes. when they went to the mall mya had stole something from the mall because she didnt have enough money. then when they caught her on camera she was the wrong person it was tara they had caught instead of mya which is the person that stole a outfit.i really liked this book she should start making more of these i loved them these are awesome Utterly bizarre urban chick-lit told from the POV of a jealous twin. Tara feels that her twin sister Maya gets the best of everything while Tara gets the short end of the stick. Tara has one friend and is surprised when hot thug Maurice pays attention to her. Then she takes a shoplifting rap for Maya and gets shipped off to the California ghetto to live with their aunt. It's clear that everyone actually does hate her. When Maya comes to visit Cali over Thanksgiving, she gets SHOT DEAD. Tara does the sensible thing and steals her identity. She gets to attend her own funeral and learn that life as Maya is not as fun as it seemed. She finally cracks in a therapy session, where it is also revealed that Maya suffered from multiple personality disorder, which led her to threaten Tara, which in turn led to her banishment to Compton. This book is utterly improbable, but it contains lots of clean drama for middle school urban fiction fans. I didn't see any typos, swearing or sexual situations that could keep it out of a school library.
