Publisher Description

Merry is bubbly, outgoing, and optimistic.

Mally is thoughtful, solitary, and independent.

The twins think of themselves as one. They dream the same dreams, experience the same emotions, and even share a language nobody else can understand.

Then, on their 13th birthday, a mysterious fire nearly kills them both. Suddenly, they begin having strange visions - different visions - and the bond between them begins to unravel.

They discover that they have each been given a gift...But what they see in the visions they have of those closest to them could destroy their lives.

"I remember reading Mitchard's The Deep End of the Ocean when it was first published. I haven't read it since but can still remember very specific passages and images. This book had some of those same elements. At times, I could see the twins, Mally and Merry, like they were standing right in front of me. That said, I found myself having to re-read a large number of passages, wondering if I had understood them correctly. There were some places that were just too wordy. I did like the story, however, and am interested in finding out what happens with the twins in future books."

    " interesting premise, but kind of sloppy execution. i know that it's the beginning of a series, but there's really not enough going on to make me want to continue with it. the ending is a let-down, and, while the twins and their mother are more or less fleshed out, the rest of the characters are extremely two-dimensional (or barely introduced at all). "

    " This is an amazing story about two twins born on opposite sides of midnight. Whether you believe in psychic abilities or not (and there are studies that say twins do share a psychic link) this is an engrossing story that will keep you on the edge of your seat. The author's note indicates that there will be more books about The Midnight Twins. I can't wait. "

    " This book was the first book i read during this school year, and for a while, i am normally a big reader, but I had just gotten out of it for a while. This book was a very easy book to just jump right into. "

    " a rather spooky book about a pair of twins.the author has just started wrighting books for young adults and this is an attention grabber. "

    " I gave this one up after the first disc. The whole relationship between the twins bugged me. I also thought it was petty of the mother to be jealous of the twins. Then when they were older and talking about the birthday party each girl irritated me with her individual pettiness. This one just wasn't for me. "

    " I liked this one once the story started moving along. A little slow to start and needs more development, but hopefully the upcoming next one will bring more depth to the characters and the story. "

    " Mally and Merry are special. Mally can see the future, and Merry can see the past. When strange things begin happening in Ridgetown, only they know what is going on, and only they can stop it. This book was OK, but it was somewhat freaky in parts. A good book, though. "

    " I usually am a big fan of JM's books, however, this one was not as good as some of the others I have read. I am not sure it this was to be a young adult book or she just decieded to write from a 13 year old girls perspective, but it did not work for me. "

    " After the book got going, I couldn't put it down. However, the first few chapters were boring and really confusing. I found myself really having to think about what I was reading instead of just enjoying the storyline. Still, I'm looking forward to reading the rest of the trilogy. "
