The Vanishing Half: A Novel
Once I picked up this riveting tale of race and identity, I didn't want to put it down and ended up finishing it in two days. The Vanishing Half tells the story of two light skinned Black identical twin sisters growing up in the deep South in the 1950's. At the age of sixteen, they run away and end up leading very different lives with one sister choosing to pass as white, leaving her old life and her sister completely behind. The rest that follows is fascinating. This book is currently fourth on the NY Times Fiction Best Sellers List and author Brit Bennett just closed a 7 figure deal with HBO to adapt the book into a limited series. I loved the writing and this is one of the best books I've read this year.
