When Lexi and Ava were younger, they made up an imaginary triplet named Alicia who served as their way out of trouble when they were kids. Now she’s their alter-ego when dating boys they’d never consider dating as their real selves.

Then one of those boys ends up dead.

Then another.

Lexi thinks it’s time to put ‘Alicia’ to rest, but Ava insists that everything will be fine. However, then there is DNA evidence that points to Alicia being the main suspect in the deaths. Now Lexi is put into the center of it all despite not being with either of the boys when they were killed. So it’s either her twin sister who’s killing these boys or… Alicia might be real after all.

I’ve known of The Third Twin or a while, but I finally bought it not too long ago and I can’t believe it took me so long to finally pick it up and read it! It has been a while since I’ve read a good mystery – I literally could not put it down! The story was engaging and I kept trying to come up with my own theories as to what exactly was going on. When everything was revealed at the end, I felt like I should’ve known earlier, but eh… I didn’t. That’s what makes mysteries fun, right?

The twins were pretty stereotypical in terms of fictional twins – one is more outgoing and the other is more reserved and studious. However, Lexi does get out once in while to go on an occasional date as Alicia. I definitely related to Lexi more so than Ava. Though both girls are pretty shallow when it comes to using Alicia as their alter-ego and dating boys that they aren’t serious about, but I suppose their flaws are what makes them believable characters.

Again, I thoroughly enjoyed this book and highly recommend it to the mystery/thriller lovers out there! ( )

4.5 stars!

The only real disappointment that I have is that it's already over and I feel like I read it too fast. I couldn't help it though - it kept me wanting to know what happened next so I had to keep going!

Definitely a good YA mystery/thriller that I'd recommend. The fun part was coming up with my own theories of who was behind everything. It was a nice break from my usual servings of fluffy romance books. ( )

Lexi and Ava are identical twins who were adopted at 6 months. When they were young girls they created a third twin, Alicia, to blame whenever there were any mishaps. Now that they are seniors in high school they use Alicia as their alter ego. Alicia is sexy, confident, and lives in the moment. The girls use Alicia to date boys they would never be with in real life or when they want to embody the persona they created for Alicia. The only problem is that the boys Alicia has recently dated are turning up dead. All the evidence is pointing to the Alicia. As Lexi runs from the cops she has to figure out if her sister Ava is the murderer or if Alicia is real.

Although there were small parts of the book I thought the author could have done without, I enjoyed most of the story. I took a star away because I didn't enjoy finding out who the killer was nor the reason she gave for killing the boys. The journey leading up was much better than the end.

Overall I liked the book and I would recommend reading. ( )

When they were young, twins Lexi and Ava invented a third identical sibling, Alicia, whom they blamed for everything they had done which might have gotten them into trouble. Now as seniors, they still use the fictitious Alicia when one of them wants to date an inappropriate boy for a brief time. The girls see this as hilarious and fun which it is until the boys start to wind up dead and all the clues point to Alicia!
I think my students will enjoy this fast paced nail biter. I had initial ideas about the killer, and to my delight, I wasn't right. ( )

2.5 stars, really.
Identical twins "create" a third twin that they blame for anything either of them does wrong. Later, they dress up as this third twin to go out with hot, but questionable boys. Then 2 of the boys Alicia dates are murdered, and both twins insist they had nothing to do with it. Who is killing them? Not surprisingly, each twin comes to suspect the other. And they make some stupid choices like lying to the police, and later, taking things into their own hands without contacting police. Like when I'm watching some Lifetime movies, I found myself "telling" them "don't do that!"
I thought I had the ending figured out, but I only got part of it right.
Some good writing, some interesting (but kind of stupid/naive) characters, and a somewhat predictable ending. ( )
