Great read for teens
Book: The Originals Author: Cat Patrick Reviewed by: Louise Endacott Rating: Great read
Every person has different attitudes throughout an average day. But what makes us different from Elizabeth Best is that each of us is our own person.
Ella, Lizzie and Betsey are three 16-year-old girls living one life – that of Elizabeth Best.
They are clones living the same life to protect the identity of their mother.
To the world they are only one person – Elizabeth Best, as they split their lives and exist as one person.
When Lizzie falls in love, everything changes as she realises how important it is to be your own person.
As stories go, especially ones that attract teens, this has romance, suspense and intrigue.
I could not put the book down. For a person in that age group, I found the sense of belonging that was brought forward by Lizzie and I hung on her every word.
There was a point where I thought the story could be sped up a bit and I found the ending a little predictable, but in the end it was very entertaining.
I recommend this book to teens.
