Sisterland by Curtis Sittenfeld- 400 pgs.
Daisy and Violet are not your typical twins. They are not close, don't do everything together and will go weeks without talking to each other. There is one thing they have in common: psychic abilities. When Violet predicts that a massive earthquake will hit their hometown of St. Louis, it sends shock waves through Daisy's life that have nothing to do with an earthquake. St. Louis people will get a kick out of the references of well-known landmarks like Blueberry Hill, Wash U and the Arch. Some other fun mentions include Schnucks, Bread Co. and Kaldi's coffee. These references make an intriguing read even better.
