The Lies You Told: The unmissable thriller from the bestselling author of Blood Orange

Product Information

Your name is Y/N Smith. You recently found out you weren't actually muggle and you begged your parents to let you go to Hogwarts. Right from the start, I got hooked on the story, as I literally did not know what's happening and where this story goes. It took me a while to get into it, to be honest. The second half of the book seemed to me much faster than the first. But maybe it's because I was already heavily involved in the story. There are a few POVs here aside from Marisa's main narrative. In general, I don't like too many POVs, and I don't think all of them were necessary in this case either. Especially since we only heard from some people once or twice. But it was not a big problem.

You’re supposed to break up with someone because you’re not in love with them. Not because you’re completely in love with them… -If I Stay “

There is beauty in the death of love; it hides in the mistakes that you know you’ll never make again. -Unknown “ The deadly logical+pessimist combo in me refuses to accept that nothing came to light for fourteen years and suddenly everything is out in the open within a few weeks. And as usual, it is the amateur family member who discovers stuff that the official investigators didn’t.

Due to their childhood traumas the twin developed addictions: Marisa turned to alcohol and drugs. Clare turned to act out badly—dressing like her sister, and having casual sex. Brit is the wild card (she is no angel, a control freak, and everyone thinks she is the mother hen) after their mom died, putting herself in charge. But did/does she have their best interest at heart?

8. Tell the whole truth.

Finalul m-a scos din minți (în cel mai bun sens), spoilerele mă împiedică să spun „de ce”, însă Epilogul mi s-a părut ingenios, cu toate că au existat câteva indicii strecurate în penultimele capitole, de parcă autoarea a vrut să ne încurajeze să ne punem mai multe semne de întrebare.

Mary Burton strikes a heartfelt chord on several social issues in The Lies I Told among which are the dire consequences of dysfunctional families, unbearable loss, alcohol and drug addiction, abuse - both sexual and mental, and especially prominent in this one . . . toxic relationships between both family and friends. And she does so with all the finesse and grace she's known for. The Lies I Told is a meticulous, highly emotional, dark, convoluted and highly entertaining suspense thriller. Readers should set aside some quiet time before starting this one and plan on reading late. Mary Burton steps outside her norm and slays it with this one. Highly recommended to fans of suspense thrillers!

It wasn’t difficult to guess the responsible party after some chapters. I feel that most avid thriller readers will be able to figure it out fairly easily. The title of this book is appropriate since just about everyone in it is lying either straight out or by omission. Marisa's twin sister Clare was murdered at the age of sixteen and fourteen years later Marisa is still trying to find out who did it. Added to this she is recovering from a serious car crash, some loss of memory and alcoholism. One obstacle is what you already know. Even if a lie sounds plausible, why would you set what you know aside just because you heard the lie repeatedly?

Here we have a list of quotes that help explain why hearts are so easy to break, and why love sometimes can’t last forever… How is the new life of Eloïse Redmond, a muggle born that has to live under the torture and violence towards her just because of the blood that run through her veins.And with great pacing, riveting characters and plenty of twists. This genuinely was a story I couldn't put down and its one I would definitely recommend to others.
