Another book down by a new author, Audrey Niffenegger. The fiction book, Her Fearful Symmetry, is written in British-English, so it took a bit to get adjusted to it. Niffenegger is also the author of The Time Traveler's Wife.
The story starts with twin sisters inheriting their aunt's, their mother's twin, flat in London. They could only inherit the flat and money after they turned 21, lived there for a full year and never let their parents into the flat. After turning 21, the twins move to London and learn the area and meet the people in the building. The twins are connected in all they do and constantly dress the same. Valentina the weaker of the twins is sick of being controlled by Julia and constructs a way to get away from her sister. The idea seems impossible and all that is discovered in the process explains the struggles that separated their mom and aunt.
