Somebody Like You by Beth Vogt was a fun book to read. I did spend a lot of time feeling bad for the character but at the same time I didn’t want to put the book down once I started it. I am not sure what it is about Beth’s writing that captures me so much but it does and I wasn’t let down by this book. In this book you go along with Haley as she struggles to deal with her husbands death along with find out that he had an identical twin brother that she never knew about. His brother Stephen shows up to try learn about his brother because they were estranged for 12 years. I loved watching how both characters changed over time and I was sad when it ended because like usual the characters became “real” to me. This is a must read for everyone!

Her attempts to create a new life for herself are ambushed when she arrives home one evening—and finds her husband waiting for her.
