Description

A thrilling gothic horror novel about biracial twin sisters separated at birth, perfect for fans of Lovecraft Country and The Vanishing Half As infants, twin sisters Charlie Yates and Magnolia Heathwood were secretly separated after the brutal lynching of their parents, who died for loving across the color line. Now, at the dawn of the Civil Rights Movement, Charlie is a young Black organizer in Harlem, while white-passing Magnolia is the heiress to a cotton plantation in rural Georgia. Magnolia knows nothing of her racial heritage, but secrets are hard to keep in a town haunted by the ghosts of its slave-holding past. When Magnolia finally learns the truth, her reflection mysteriously disappears from mirrors—the sign of a terrible curse. Meanwhile, in Harlem, Charlie's beloved grandmother falls ill. Her final wish is to be buried back home in Georgia—and, unbeknownst to Charlie, to see her long-lost granddaughter, Magnolia Heathwood, one last time. So Charlie travels into the Deep South, confronting the land of her worst nightmares—and Jim Crow segregation. The sisters reunite as teenagers in the deeply haunted town of Eureka, Georgia, where ghosts linger centuries after their time and dangers lurk behind every mirror. They couldn’t be more different, but they will need each other to put the hauntings of the past to rest, to break the mirrors’ deadly curse—and to discover the meaning of sisterhood in a racially divided land.

    • Sweeping. Powerful. Haunting.
Format: Kindle
Eureka, Georgia is a place in the south stuck in Jim Crow even as the rest of the world in 1953 is exploding with racial turmoil. The Yates family is Black. The Heathwoods are white. Race mixing is prevalent, but hidden like a dirty secret. One couple, him white and her Black, fell in love and had twin girls, one light and one dark. Something tragic happens and the girls are separated at birth, one raised as white the other as Black. And neither knows the other exists until Nana Jeanette is dying and wants to leave the home she made in Harlem and go back home to Eureka to fix what's broken before she dies. The past literally haunts the twin girls. Family secrets, lies, and betrayal of the worst kind threaten to tear these long-lost sisters apart right when they found each other. Can they fight to bring down Jim Crow in Eureka and break the family curse before it's too late?? ... show more

    • Haunting tale of twin sisters, one living a lie
Format: Kindle
Told from each sister's point of view, Mirror Girls is a story of twin sisters separated at birth, one black and the other passing as white. There's an eerieness of the southern setting and the sadness of the black history that occurred that resonates throughout.

    • Excellent
Format: Kindle
This story touched my heart. It is well written and draws you in from the beginning. As a southern girl born in 1950, partially raised in Southern California, I could relate to both sisters. I was glad the author did not give the story a fairytale ending, which gives the reader the opportunity to imagine the future of all the main characters. I would love to see Opra or Tyler Perry make this into a movie. This author is my new favorite. ... show more

    • Excellent story, not a fan of the writing style.
Format: Paperback
Excellent story, however not a fan of the writing style. The blurb on the back got me hooked. I'm a sucker for a good Gothic novel especially when it involves twins separated at birth. The story line and plot were awesome, it was slow in a few places, but picked back up. My problem is that the whole book is written in the first person. The chapters alternate between Charlie and Magnolia speaking. My brain had a hard time wrapping around this and I had to often go back and remind myself who was speaking, especially when both sisters were in the same chapter. ... show more

    • Unputtdownable!
Format: Kindle
Proceed With Caution: This book contains lynching, racism, slavery, segregation, blood and gore. The Basics: Mirror Girls is narrated by seventeen-year-old twins, Charlie and Magnolia, who don't know about each other. Charlie has lived in New York with their Black grandmother, only returning to Eureka, Georgia upon Nana's request. Magnolia was raised in Eureka by their white grandmother because she passes for white. When both grandmothers die, the girls learn the truth of their pasts and must fight for their futures. My Thoughts: I nearly read Mirror Girls in one sitting! Not just because it's short, but because it hooked me from the first chapter and never let me go! If life didn't come calling, forcing me to take a break, I wouldn't have stopped until I reached the end. This book is dark and gripping and atmospheric and at times brutal, but is ultimately about good trumping evil and making positive change for the future! It was just all things good. The ending was a bit underwhelming, which is the only thing that kept this from being 5-stars. Mirror Girls is set in 1953 Georgia. Charlie is escorting her grandmother back to her hometown where she planned to die and be buried. Upon Nana's death, Charlie learns that she's a twin! And that her twin has been raised by their white grandmother. Meanwhile, Magnolia learns that she's really half-Black from their white grandmother on her own deathbed and promptly loses her reflection and ability to eat. Lots of death. Lots of secrets. Lots of pain. Lots of page turning! I don't want to spoil anything, so I can't say much more about Mirror Girls. I really liked Charlie and Magnolia. They're very different girls and not just because of their skin colors. They were raised very differently, but both of them need to change their view of the world in order to make a better future for themselves. I loved the gothic atmosphere and the spirits interfering with the girls' lives. It was just exactly what I wanted to read at exactly the right time. ... show more

My daughter and I share a love of reading, I recommended a book to her, that was exceptional , then in turn she recommends Mirror Girls for this era in history, where the fight for equality starts , I love that there is little fact thrown into the mix. Anyone searching for bits of cultural enlightenment will want the story to continue. ... show more
