Review: Its a story about twins Jake and Lily. Jake and Lily have magic between them, they called it goombla. They were so close, that they could feel each others pain and feelings even when far apart; they could never play hide and seek because they always knew where each other was and same habits like sleepwalking to the train station where the were born, every birthday. Things started to change between them over time and the summer they turned twelve, things began to change. Jake made new friends and Lily felt abandoned and lost without her brother. She struggles to make friends initially but later both twins have a good bond but their own lives. Jake and Lily is a great book about growing up and finding oneself. It’s a realistic
fiction book so you can relate to the book and realize life lessons. Its a good book to re-read too!
