Disliked this book immensely, "The Cousins" paled in comparison to the other books by this author. The storyline was weak and the plot didn't even begin to pick up until the book was nearly finished. In my opinion the characters were all unlikeable, and I didn't find myself rooting for any of them. The twists in this book were thrown in at random and were, for the most part unimportant and did not impact the storyline. I felt that the ending of the book was rushed and predictable. Overall I would not recommend this book.
