I Know This Much Is True

by Wally Lamb

After hearing so many good things about this book I finally dug it out and read it. I figured it was long and would take me all summer to read. Nope. Sped right through it.

It is a story of twins brothers, one who is schizoprenic and one not, focusing on the effects on the unsick twin. It is a very detailed book, with parts that go back to childhood and a whole manuscript that tells his life story (which I enjoyed reading).

I'd definitely reccomend this book The characters were vivid and real. On a side note, his detail/style of writing reminds me of Stephen King. This book was SO much better than the other one I read by him, She's Come Undone.
