** I received this book as an arc through NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.**

Ever since that fateful night, twin sisters Cassie and Lenora have been inseparable, living as the only permanent residents of Cabin Two in a secluded Tennessee campground. Hidden away from prying eyes and intrusive questions, they manage to find solace and nearly forget the haunting events of their past. However, their fragile peace is shattered when a teenage girl from a neighboring cabin goes missing, dredging up old memories and suspicions. In the oppressive wilderness, Cassie and Lenora must confront their dark past and uncover the truth before it's too late, all while questioning how much the other knows.

Overall rating: 4.2/5

Ratings:

1. **Plot and Storytelling:** 4/5. I felt the plot of When She Was Me was well-planned, with a compelling storyline and an excellent twist. My only complaint is that it felt a bit too long; some of the filler could have been cut down.

2. **Characterization:** 3/5. The characters were interesting, defined by their flaws, which contributed greatly to the haunting aspects of the story. However, their growth was minimal and predictable, which was frustrating.

3. **Writing Style:** 4/5. I enjoyed Marlee Bush’s writing. Although the pacing was a little slow, the story was very well-told and well-plotted.

4. **Originality:** 5/5. This story felt very original, especially considering the twist and all the revelations that were made.

5. **Emotional Impact and Resolution:** 5/5. This book had me completely absorbed. It kept me engaged and on the edge of my seat, wrapping up with a satisfying conclusion.

If you enjoyed When She Was Me, you might like these books that offer similar themes of suspense, psychological twists, and deep character development such as Gone Girl by Gillian Flynn, The Woman in the Window by A.J. Finn, or The Silent Patient by Alex Michaelides.
