(2) 4-6 Twins Jake and Lily have always shared a birthday, a room, and a special connection. The summer before sixth grade, their parents decide they should have separate rooms, and Jake starts hanging around with Bump Stubbins, whom Lily loathes. The story is a conversation between the twins, with alternating viewpoints; the structure provides insight into the characters both as individuals and siblings.
