November 09, 2009: Stranger With My Face by Lois Duncan is one of the best fantasy thriller book I have ever read. Once you start reading this book, you will not be able to put it down. This book is full of suspense and will definitely entertain the reader. This book takes place in modern New England, on Brighton Island. Laurie, the main character of the book, doesn't have a close relationship with her parents. However, she has a good life. Laurie was to attend a party on the beach, but got sick and didn't go. However a person who looked just like her was spotted on the beach. Laurie denied she went to the party. Later, a person identical to Laurie began to appear at her home and at school. Laurie senses something strange is happening. While sleeping at night, she sees a person identical to her named Lia. She cannot tell if it was a dream or something real. Laurie later discovers that she was adopted and has a twin sister name Lia. Laurie learns that Lia has gone from foster home to foster home. She also discovers that Lia is a bad person. Laurie wants to find out where her Lia lives now. Lia is jealous of her and tricks Laurie into giving up her body through astral projection, and Laurie struggles to regain it. What will Laurie do when her life is taken? Read this book to find out. I liked this book, because there were no dull parts throughout the book.
