Advantages: A gorgeous story!

Disadvantages: It will make you cry!

One of the most moving books I have read, and trust me, I have read a lot of books!
"The Girls" is a fantastic novel written with such delicacy about a subject that can only be described as sensitive!

Ruby and Rose Darlen are the worlds longest surviving conjoined craniopagus twins. "The Girls" follows the trials and tribulations that every day life brings to them. After a rough start in life, with their mother dieing 8 weeks after giving birth, the girls get adopted by a nurse who was present at their birth.

As you will learn both girls are completely different. We learn about their existence that is isolated and strange, but still full with love, travel, work, and even sex!!!

Lori Lansens writes so beautifully and with such empathy for her characters.

This book will make you laugh and cry. It is one not to be forgotten about.

Summary: A beautifully written story, full of passion and laughter
