This is an awesome book that you must read

Double Act is a great book about 2 inseparable twins, their dad, their mom, their gran, and their mean stepmother, Rose. It is sort of short but is very much worth reading if you like sad books.

READ THIS BOOK

You wanna know why this book is so great? Well, you'll just have to read it - but I will tell you a little bit. This book you are about to order (maybe) Is about identical twins with totally different personalities. Ruby is outgoing and playful, while Garnet is quiet and shy. When their mother dies and gets replaced by frizzy dizzy Rose, they have to team up and stand up against the family. You're still wondering why this book is so good right? Well, the reason why I rated this book 5 stars is because it is so organized and if you read it, it'll hook you, making you want to read more, more, more: until you finish and complain that there is no sequel to it. Jacqueline Wilson fans, welcome the amazing: DOUBLE ACT!!!

another hit from Jacqueline Wilson

This book is about twins called Ruby and Garnet. I liked this story for lots of reasons. I am interested in what life is like for twins. The story is written from the point of view of each twin - the twins take it in turns to narrate a chapter. I also enjoyed the different things going on in the story. Some parts are funny, other parts are a little sadder - Ruby and Garnet are not always happy to be identical twins. I couldn't put the book down - but then I am always like that with a Jacqueline Wilson book.

This is one of my favorite books!!

I read a book called Double Act. This was one of the best books that I have ever read. It was funny, adventurous, and very much like real life. It was adventurous because the two main characters, Ruby and Garnet, who are identical twins, ask their dad (their mom is dead) if they can audition for a twin commercial, but he says no. Regardless of this, they go to New York and audition. It was funny because their dad met someone that they hate and they do funny things like confuse her, throw-up on her, etc. This is realistic because she made these two characters act how real twins act-I would know because I have a twin sister. Jacqueline wilson has a very unique writing style. she uses cliffhangers,and writes in a way that there is never a part whereit isn't interesting, boring or obvious. this is a book that you just can't put down! When you come acorss a book well-written, like this one, you say, "Mom, just let me finish this chapter I have just one more page to finish!" You really have three, but anything to read more of it! I suggest this book to anyone who like funny, adventurous, and realistic books.

Double Act is truly gripping.

I seriously enjoyed Double act and thought it was reallyamazing. I love the way Ruby and Garnet have totally differentpersonalaty and are in someway they are simalar. it is great!
