The bruh’s review Brit Bennett’s The Vanishing Half, a tale of twin sisters who now live very distant lives, but are eternally entangled. Twins Desiree and Stella Vignes decide to escape a life of what they believe to be monotony and unreconciled strivings for what they thought would be more. Things take a fascinating turn when one of the twins absconds and decides to live the rest of her life as a white woman.
