Some of the things Maddy and her 'friends' said and did were just terrible. Life goes on beyond being an irritating jerk in high school. The last couple books I've read have been in high schools so I think I've just reached my threshold. I've said it before, and I'll say it again, I think I'm getting too old for this high school drama. Was she just going to wake up and decide, hey, my sister's life seemed pretty good, let's just switch? Or was there going to be an unconscious/made for her choice where she's Maddy because they say she is and everyone's favourite plot device amnesia does the rest? What actually happened was somewhere in between, and I would say fairly believable. Going into this book, my biggest concern was wondering if Leaver was going to get the whole pretending to be Maddy thing to be realistic. But everyone is so happy to see her, to see Maddy, that she plays along. But when her sister's boyfriend shows up, she knows they've made a mistake. She wakes up in the hospital and initially remembers very little. Next thing she knows, she's being pried out of the car by a paramedic and crying out for her sister. She's still angry with her sister up until the minute she loses control of the car in the rain and hail. After having to pick up her sister at a party in the middle of the night, Ella isn't too pleased. The story follows twin sisters Maddy and Ella.
