Twins Point Horror Horror Book Review

I’ve always been a fan of Caroline B. Cooney but this comes across as a quick “filler”  book….almost like she had to make some quota and had a week to come out with a book. I liked the beginning, but after Mary Lee went back home it came across as really rushed. The build-up to how evil Madrigal and John Pear were was very anti-climactic. All they did was drop off people in the inner city? I mean that can be dangerous but it almost screams “epitome of white upper-middle class” if the worst thing that can happen to them is they’re dropped off in the innner city (and not even at night either). I mean, people LIVE there. One girl has a mental breakdown and has to go to a mental institution for 2 weeks because she sees a rat. Ridiculous and babyish. The whole “good twin/evil twin” is very cliched. People just aren’t evil for no reason, as is implied in the book. Furthermore, you think the parents would have attempted to get Madrigal some counseling if they were really concerned like they said they were.
