출판사 설명
You look exactly like your twin brother. Exactly. You think like him, for him, with him, cannot live without him. Cannot. Don't want to. Don't want to. Other kids play Hide & Seek. But you and he play Hide & Be. Your parents died when you were two. The foster parents were sometimes nice and sometimes awful. They could never tell you apart because one of you would hide; the other would just be. Be bad. Be blamed. Be good. Get the Jesus Strap. Get the ice cream cone. There were always eyes on you, then him. Wondering which one you were. There were always voices in your head, his. They can't judge you because you could always be him, or you. You did not need friends because you are his and he is yours. You learn you don't need anyone else; they can't see you, just him. Or are they looking at him, not you? If one of you dies, the other will be. You.

HIDE AND BE
A DR LISBETH SOCORRO NOVEL, Bᴏᴏᴋ 1

The first two books in the Dr Lisbeth Socorro series were very intriguing. Dr Socorro is a clinical psychiatrist that studies twins and especially mirror twins- those who are monozygotic (share a placenta and amniotic sac) and are mirror reflections of each other. This means if one is right handed then the other is left handed, their internal organs will be on opposite sides, etc. She also works as a federal prison psychiatrist.
Both books are fairly quick reads and were fascinating stuff.
This story felt a little like a twilight zone episode. I couldn’t believe what was happening but how does a twin prove he’s not his twin?? And can one convince himself he is his other twin?? Very trippy!
I’ll be interested to see where the series goes. I like Liz and am curious if it will continue to be all twins or branch off.
