What a great cover!!! I would love to be a judge for book cover art one day!!!

“I’d imagined that just because he was so good-looking, he must be extra good inside too. See, that’s the thing about our species. We can kind of tell the difference between looks and personality, but only kind of. We’re always getting the two things mixed up in our heads, even when we know better.”

Seventeen-year-old conjoined twins, Clara and Hailey, have lived in the same small town their entire lives—no one stares at them anymore. But there are cracks in their quiet existence and they’re slowly becoming more apparent. Clara and Hailey are at a crossroads. Clara wants to stay close to home, avoid all attention, and study the night sky. Hailey wants to travel the world, learn from great artists, and dance with mysterious boys. As high school graduation approaches, each twin must untangle her dreams from her sister’s, and figure out what it means to be her own person.

Clara and Hailey desperately wish they could ask their crushes to the Sadie Hawkins dance without it being a big deal. But of course, it is...because they are conjoined twins.

Clara is the practical one, who wants to live her life without being noticed. Hailey is the artistic twin, with pink hair and dreams of traveling the world. Together, they are forced to act in unison at every moment, even while going to the bathroom

Told in alternating points of view, Gemini brings you into lives unlike any other. It poses deep questions like "What does it mean to be normal?" and "Is there someone in your own life holding you back?" As Clara and Hailey struggle with big issues and little ones, they remind readers to enjoy life and live fearlessly.
