Lies She Told

De: Cate Holahan

Narrado por: Amy McFadden, Lisa Larsen

Sometimes the truth is darker than fiction.

Liza Cole has 30 days to write the thriller that could put her back on the best-seller list. In the meantime, she's struggling to start a family with her husband, who is distracted by the disappearance of his best friend, Nick. With stresses weighing her down in both her professional and her personal lives, Liza escapes into writing her latest heroine, Beth.

Beth is a new mother who suspects her husband is cheating on her while she's home alone caring for their newborn. Angry and betrayed, she sets out to catch him in the act and to make him pay for shattering the illusion of their perfect life. But before she realizes it, she's tossing the body of her husband's mistress into the East River.

Then the lines between fiction and reality begin to blur. Nick's body is dragged from the same river, and Liza's husband is arrested for his murder. Before her deadline is up, Liza will have to face up to the truths about the people around her, including herself. If she doesn't, the end of her heroine's story could be the end of her own.

2nd narrator was awful. Story ok even if predictable.

Narrator’s stilted speech almost made me give up but story was good even if slightly predictable. Enjoyed the back and forth style.

WOW

Psychological Thriller! Liza Cole the main character of the book is writing a crime romance novel as her life starts to fall apart her book seems more like truth. Memories lost in a fog, reappear. Little disappointed with the end of the book but an easy binge read

Confusing

The book was quite confusing and hard to follow, especially at first. Not my style maybe. the narration was better than the book

Better than I expected

I almost gave up after an hour, but I'm glad I stayed with it. There were a lot of twists and turns. The narra

Where can I get my 10 hours back?

There was not one likable or sympathetic character in the book. The two stories were so parallel it wasn’t hard to figure out what was happening: Tyler/Trevor; Colleen/Christine; etc

Won’t recommend it

Good

The book was a little slow in the beginning but eventually led to twists and turns.

Good but predictable

I’m not usually one of those people who figure out an entire story line 1/4 way in, but I did for this book. It was still enjoyable.

Dual stories

Difficult to follow dual story lines as they seemed so alike. Enjoyed it overall. Performance was good.

mixed up

Twofold story. Good plan. The execution was a little bit convoluted, but it was an interesting way to share images. There was a litte subtext that was not relatable for me, but there are wives, mothers, and mothers to be that will latch right into it.

Decent enough

Story is not really surprising, but decent enough. Made me curious enough to finish it in 2 days. Performance is good, I liked it.
