The Hidden Twin by Adi Rule
The Hidden Twin by Adi Rule
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
Eighteen years ago a set of twins were born to a couple that the father was human and the mother was what was called an Other. When twins are born to a human/other couple one twin will be human but the second will become what is known as a Redwing. Redwings are feared and thought to be monsters so when discovered they will be killed at birth. The mother of this set of twins though gave her own life to protect her daughters.
Raised by her father with her sister Jey the Redwing twin was never even given her own name. She has lived in hiding her whole life barely ever coming out of their home. One day when her sister coaxes her out she runs into two priests when returning home that attack and try to capture her. This event starts a chain that brings our Redwing into a plot to save her city.
The Hidden Twin sounded very intriguing and had such a great looking cover that I couldn’t help but want to read it. However when finished I just came away with an it was OK feeling unfortunately.
While the writing was good and on the surface very descriptive, unfortunately I felt myself waiting to find out more of the world in which this was taking place. It also felt like it got off to such a slow start and took me a while to figure out the characters and plot. There were also still a lot of questions left for me when it ended that might have made me love it more if ever answered.
Overall, a bit different of a story but I would have liked more depth to fall in love with it.
I received an advance copy from the publisher via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

That’s so frustrating when that happens! I actually prefer to hate a book instead of just feel meh about it. At least then I can stop reading it

Oh I know, it wasn’t as if I completely disliked it, I was just left with a I wish there was more to this feeling. I would try another by the author though as there seemed to be potential there.
