The Similars

After the apparent suicide of her best friend, Ollie, Emma returns to find her boarding school in turmoil after it has admitted six clones, including the clone of her best friend.  The story revolves around who the clones are and why they were created…sort of.

Emma’s other best friend is attacked; Ollie leaves her a message from the grave; other people leave her notes and clues inside of books.  It’s a hunt to find out the truth behind her friend’s attack, her other friend’s death and the real story behind the Similars.  

While the subject matter was interesting, the character and plot development didn’t bolster it the way I had hoped.   It was a little too predictable at times and didn’t flesh out enough at others.   There were lots of unanswered questions and anomalies that were just left hanging out there.
