Wow! What an absolutely phenomenal debut this is! It is one of my favourite books I have read this year and deserves to be a huge success in 2022!

This story is primarily told from the perspective of Megan in the first person, and I found her to be the most fantastic main character! We meet Megan as she discovers photographs of her estranged identical twin sister Leah on her husband’s phone, and understandably wants answers! Leah has the fame, fortune and freedom to do whatever she wants, a freedom Megan could only dream of, given how controlling and absolutely awful her husband Chris is. But when Megan confronts Leah about the photographs, their argument escalates and turns to murder! The only way Megan can think of to get away with killing her twin is to become her (I loved Tom, who Megan meets whilst living Leah’s life)! But when lockdown hits, Megan is faced with a big problem. Because how will she be able to continue living two lives?!

I never once wanted to put this book down and was enthralled right from the outset. It is such a gripping and incredibly plotted story full of the most incredible twists and surprises throughout! Part 2 in particular made me feel terror and apprehension at what could happen and the change of narrator here worked incredibly well. Then the revelation at the end of this section leading into Part 3 was pure genius! Part 3 was therefore a particular favourite section of the book for me (but I absolutely loved the whole book) and Part 4 was very clever too (I cannot say anything more about the details of these sections as I don’t want to give anything away)! I also really loved the concluding part of this story. I had the biggest smile on my face as I turned the last page!

I have enjoyed Her Perfect Twin so much and really didn’t want it to have to come to an end. I cannot wait to see what Sarah Bonner writes in the future!

I devoured this book as fast as I can! With dark, compelling, unlikable characters, and a constant stream of clever, well-executed, identity-blurring twists, Sarah Bonner's debut makes for a page-turning read. Every time the narrative turned on its head, I had absolutely no idea where it was going or who would come out on top... and I loved it!

Megan and Leah were identical twins that even their parents had problems telling apart. When their dad took off their identity bracelets for bath time, he could not remember which was which. As children, the pair of them often switched places with each other but, as they grew older, although they still looked identical they were very different.

Leah was the more dominant twin, who always came out on top and was constantly in competition with Megan. After an incident when they were teenagers, Megan could never forgive her. When they briefly got together later in life, Leah ripped her off yet again.

When Megan finds photos and messages on her husband’s phone of Leah, it is clear that they have been having an affair. Megan has to go to confront her now successful millionaire sister. To say it did not go to plan is a gross understatement. So a double life begins for Megan.


It is a brilliant storyline of being pushed over the edge one too many times. The story is told through just one twin, so you don’t get to know Leah, apart from how other people see her. Once the worm has turned, it is like Megan gets a new strength about her. It is a twisty, topsy-turvy tale. It is a gripping story with so many surprises.

I wish to thank Net Galley and the publisher for an e-copy of this book, which I have reviewed honestly.

Her Perfect Twin by Sarah Bonner is a captivating read, a psychological thriller where you can’t trust anything you believe..

When Megan finds photos of what appears to be herself in underwear she doesn’t remember buying, she is confused. Is this another thing she’s forgotten about lately, or does her husband have revealing photos of her estranged twin, Leah? A visit to Leah turns violent and suddenly Megan needs to figure out a way to get away with murder? Her plan? Become Leah. But when lockdown hits, how can she continue running dual lives?

Wow! This story took me a few pages to really get into. The writing is quite casual, almost as though someone was talking, but I soon got used to this style, and when I did I was invested. A cleverly crafted story, this had me second guessing everything I was reading. The phrase ‘Unreliable characters’ is an understatement here!

Manipulation, paranoia and suspicion abound, and just when you’ve got a handle on the narrative you’re thrown a curve ball. The book is split into several parts, each from a different perspective which keeps things fresh and engaging, and reveals so much more to us as the story moves on.

Small, seemingly irrelevant plot details are woven together perfectly, culminating in an eye opening climax. I can’t say much more without giving the twisting plot away, but it’s a riot of deception for everyone involved.

Thanks to Hodder Studio and NetGalley for the approval. Her Perfect Twin is published January 20th 2022.

Wow, wow, wow! What fantastic writing and amazing character development! A truly unique tale, full of twisty turns, chilling chills, thrilling thrills, and gasp worthy shocks! Kept me on the edge of my seat throughout and was not only engrossing but completely unputdownable! Very tense and fast paced! I cannot recommend this one enough, it’s not to be missed, but plan for one heck of a hangover! Highly, highly, highly recommend!!!

Will buzz around and use Top Amazon reviewer number on release!

Thank you to Netgalley for an advanced copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

Wow-what a fabulous read. Very different, yet filled with suspense, thrills and twists, A wonderful debut. I can't wait for the next book.

This took what I thought it was going to be and turned it on its head at every juncture, and It’s wonderful to have all your expectations subverted in that way. It’s a real romp of a thriller, and once I had put myself in the fiendish minds of the narrators I was completely along for the ride, and what a ride it was. Like Gone Girl meets Gaslight I was never sure who or what to believe which made this a truly compelling read, which ties up very satisfyingly (if a little disturbingly!)

Release date 20th January 2022 Thank you to netgalley, the publisher and Sarah Bonner for the digital advanced copy of her perfect win in exchange for my fair and honest opinions.

The perfect twin follows Megan after she finds herself in a predicament she has just killed her identical twin, the only way she thinks she will getaway with murder is if she becomes Leah as well as Megan. With the marriage she’s in not a happy one and with her commuting to work each week it’s easier then she originally thanks. The question is will she getaway with imitating her twin or more importantly can getaway with murder?

I absolutely loved this book! I didn’t have a clue what it was about when I picked it up so was utterly surprised when Megan kills Leah, now I only include that in the review because it is on the blurb for the book so technically no spoilers! What I find so compelling about this book as I really had no idea where it was going any which way I started to question whether Megan even was a twin at one point because I know that was a saucy twist of another twin book I had read last year.

Megan is our lead protagonist and what I really enjoy about this book it’s told to us in first person but it’s also told to us as if someone is talking directly to you. I absolutely love it when author really brings me into the story an I feel like I’m a part of a little secret conversation. The writing in general was done so well and very distinctive between characters, but I won’t say more about that. Megan is a woman in a bad situation espically regarding her relationship with her sister and husband . It is absolutely no wonder why Megan sees Leah’s life as an escape and the answer to her problems, or is it!

The book is set in four parts and this really adds to the drama of the book, again without saying any spoilers all I will say is be prepared be very prepared to have a WTF moment because believe me I literally read one paragraph like five times in complete disbelief. So yeah if you find that the book is a bit of a slow burner which at times it can be power through coz I promise you it’s worth it.

In general as a psychological thriller I think that her perfect twin is bang on the money! It is well written coma has you thinking so many different theories at once, I find myself on edge throughout the entire book and in general it was a blew my mind!

Would I recommend her perfect twin? Yes I would I find it to be so enjoyable and honestly with all the twists and turns I truly didn’t know what I thought anymore when it came to the book outcome but I loved it either way. I happily rate this five stars, her perfect twin is a fantastic debut novel by Sarah Bonner and i highly recommend can’t wait for the books to follow.

This book started off very slow and I wasn’t gripped. I would have given up if I had not been curious as to why it had received such great reviews. I persevered and it wasn’t until the second half where it became interesting. I raced through to the end and followed all the twists and turns. There were definitely a few loopholes and unanswered questions but overall it was a good book with a great plot. I can see it being made into a movie or tv series!

I thoroughly enjoyed this novel. There were many reasons for this. Firstly, Sarah Bonner takes the age old identical twin theme and turns it on its head. When Megan finds pictures of her estranged twin sister on her husband's phone it sets off a chain of events that leave her having to act the role of both sisters if she is to stay out of prison. There are multiple twists within this tale which keep you guessing to the end. I did guess how the final outcome would be decided as the clue to this appeared much at earlier in the story but this did not detract from its impact. The second reason I have for finding the story so enjoyable is that the writer did not ignore the events of Lockdown and was able to skilfully weave them into the plot so that some of the action is driven by Megan's inability to get away from her husband. I would recommend this story to anyone who enjoys a good thriller that is a little bit different.

Oh gripping thrillers, 'think-about-the-book-when-you-aren't-reading-it' thrillers, how I missed you!
So fast-paced, gripping and twisty, all thriller readers need this book in their lives!
I honestly could barely keep up with the characters, the multiple POVs, the twists and gasp-out-loud moments and I loved every second.
My last few thrillers haven't been anywhere near this good, and I am so glad there are new thrillers coming out that still manage to surprise me and keep me gripped for the entirety of the novel. I cannot wait for more from this author!

Dark and compelling, Her Perfect Twin is the perfect thriller. Sharp as a knife and so twisty, it hooked me from the very first page. My head is still spinning!

Wow! What a book. How can this be a debut novel?
This is fast paced, clever with plenty of twists and turns that kept me guessing.
One of my favourite books this year and it’s definitely worthy of 5 stars. I loved this book.

WOW! What a gripping read! Fast paced, exciting and easy to read.
I was hooked from the beginning!

What a fantastic book. I didn’t particularly like any of the characters or their behaviours but this book was literally jaw dropping. It has suspense in spades and more twists than a country lane. Great for whiling away a rainy afternoon and once you pick up this book you won’t be able to put it down. Looking forward to reading more by this author,

What a ride! This book captured my attention from the opening page. Twins that aren’t close and don’t even like each other. One ends up murdered by the other.

Megan and Leah had a rivalry which was more than just the usual sibling disagreements. Megan is married to Chris. Chris is sleeping with Leah. In the beginning of the novel we learn that Megan discovers that her husband and twin have been having an affair. They’ve also been messing with her head. When Megan approaches Leah and murders her, she’s got some things to sort out to get away with murder but when you’ve got a nasty husband with a mean evil streak and a virus on the rise, things start getting a little tricky.

This is the first novel that I’ve read that takes place during covid. The pandemic is there in the background and adds to the complexities of getting away with murder but this isn’t a story about covid. This is a rollercoaster of a ride with all sorts of twists and the whole time reading it you’re wonder right until the very end what’s going to happen.

This was a great read and I’m grateful for the advanced copy granted to me by Netgalley and Hodder & Stoughton.

Twins Megan and leah have never really got along. Leah has always done and got what she wanted no matter who it might hurt and has got very rich in the process. But now she's gone a step too far when Megan finds out that includes sleeping with her husband! Megan goes to confront Leah, an argument ensues and Leah ends up dead! Megan has 2 choices-admit to murder or try to live both lives simultaneously. How can she keep up the pretence? Especially now the country is in lockdown. Before long things start to unravel and she can no longer keep her secret safe. This was a fabulous debut novel. So many twists and turns I doubted myself and my judgement through to the very end! What a superb read! Highly recommend!

LOVED this book. So incredibly twisty, it kept me captivated throughout. I had no idea where the plot was going and the twists and turns were very well executed. An easy 5 stars.

Suspend your disbelief and enjoy the ride!!! Totally brilliant book that would make great TV series. My thanks to Netgalley for my Kindle copy of Her Perfect Twin, this book has everything!

Sibling Rivalry…
A sibling argument descends into murder in this genuinely tense, gripping suspense. To get away with this murder Megan must become her twin sister. But, nobody could have anticipated a lockdown. How can Megan continue to live this seemingly double life? Cleverly done, immersive and edge of seat creepy this is a delicious, one sitting read.
