Julie Chan didn’t mean to steal her identical twin’s life. She meant to call the police when she found the body. She meant to dial 911.

Except when she unlocked Chloe’s phone to make that call, she also gained access to her estranged sister’s sponsorship deals, her followers, her wealth, her whole life.

And Julie’s not prepared to give it back. Not yet. So it''s goodbye Julie, love Chloe x

Now all Julie has to do is keep her head down and blend in with the beautiful Belladonnas, the tribe of influencers who had welcomed Chloe in to their inner circle before she died.

Julie''s going to breathe, detox, workout. Curate each post. Filter each picture. Spend whole days filming unboxing videos.

But someone out there knows that even identical twins have their differences...

Review quote:
Liann Zhang''s debut is an accomplished psychological thriller but it''s even better as a caustic satire about the lore, lingo and lifestyle of the stars of Instagram and TikTok . . . If the aim is to do for influencers what Yellowface (another tale of impersonation) did for publishers, it''s one she achieves with verve

A diabolical thriller with a storyline that is just as striking as its bold yellow and pink cover… shines a harsh light on influencer culture and exposes the ugly truths through cutting satire
