By the time Kate Larson accidentally fell asleep at three a.m., she'd already done more work in one night than the average high school senior does in a week. Getting into Yale has been her dream for years—and being generally overworked and totally under-rested is the price of admission. But when she opens her eyes the next day, she comes face-to-face with, well, her face—which is attached to her body, which is standing across the room. Wait, what?
Meet Kate's computer-generated twin. Kate doesn't know why she's here or how to put her back where she belongs, but she's real. And she's the last thing Kate has time to deal with right now. Unless . . .
Could having a double be the answer to Kate's prayers? After all, two Kates can do more work than one. Or will keeping her twin a secret turn her dream future into a living nightmare?

My Thoughts:
I thought this was a good book but to be honest something about it didn’t feel right. I usually know wither I will like a book or not by the 3rd chapter. I think I just didn’t feel a connection from page one and that really turned me off too it. Once I got over that it got better but if you are looking for a book with a guaranteed connection this is not it. It’s as if not all the characters were developed enough to have a relationship with them.

I think fans of fun, light, fresh books will like this.
