The Other Ann by Amy Cross

 


🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Five "Doppleganger Danger" Stars


Double Trouble Twists!

A taste of what lies within:

Ann Garland has been one of the ones chosen to have a doppleganger from another parallel universe to live with her. A portal had opened with billions of dopplegangers from another world as their world was destroyed by war come breaking through into this world and only certain people end up having a look-alike live with them. 

Ann though loves her quiet life with no one around except her cat, Sheba, but the government has other plans for her as now she has to share her space with her mirror self. At first both of them just want to stay away from each other but eventually they both make the best of it and just try to get along. 

As a little time passes things seem to happen to Ann that make her think her other self has it out for her and she tries to figure out if she is really on the bad end of the deal or if it is all in her mind. When she finds out that her other self was once part of a mental asylum is when everything escalates as she wonders if her other self is really a danger to her well being or not! 

That is about all I can give on a taste without giving away spoilers!

Thoughts:

This was my first time reading a science fiction/psychological horror from author, Amy Cross. Normally the author stays within the horror field of hauntings and spooks and/or slasher-serial killer stories, but this book just hooked me from the first chapter and kept its hooks in me all the way to the end of the book! 

This book kept my insomnia fueled and I read the book within 24 hours as I just could not put it down! As the story moves along the suspense and tension of what happens with both Ann's just escalates as things begin to happen to the both of them. 

The author keeps the suspense building up from chapter to chapter and the fast pace of the book just keeps growing to insurmountable tension as I kept wanting to see what would happen next! 

Another great book by this author and one I won't soon forget. It makes you wonder if any of us would be able to live with an exact replica of ourselves or would it drive us mad.
