Book of the Week – One by Sarah Crossan

OneOne is a beautifully written book about conjoined twins Tippi and Grace, their love for each other and their emergence into the real world when they can no longer be home-schooled. It is written in verse, which makes it a fairly quick read whilst still taking you on an absolute roller-coaster of emotion.

Grace and Tippi are twins – conjoined twins.  And their lives are about to change.

No longer able to be homeschooled, they must venture into the world – a world of stares, sneers and cruelty. Will they find more than that at school? Can they find real friends? And what about love?

But what neither Grace nor Tippi realises is that a heart-wrenching decision lies ahead. A decision that could tear them apart. One that will change their lives even more than they ever imagined…

I absolutely loved this book, and I foresee it winning awards in 2016.
