The Elizas

A Novel

By: Sara Shepard

Narrated by: Jayme Mattler

Length: 11 hrs and 57 mins

Publisher's summary

New York Times best-selling author of Pretty Little Liars Sara Shepard makes her mark on adult fiction with this Hitchcockian double narrative composed of lies, false memories, and a protagonist who must uncover the truth for survival.

When debut novelist Eliza Fontaine is found at the bottom of a hotel pool, her family at first assumes that it’s just another failed suicide attempt. But Eliza swears she was pushed, and her rescuer is the only witness.

Desperate to find out who attacked her, Eliza takes it upon herself to investigate. But as the publication date for her novel draws closer, Eliza finds more questions than answers. Like why are her editor, agent, and family mixing up events from her novel with events from her life? Her novel is completely fictional, isn’t it?

The deeper Eliza goes into her investigation while struggling with memory loss, the closer her life starts to resemble her novel, until the line between reality and fiction starts to blur and she can no longer tell where her protagonist’s life ends and hers begins.

Fans of Pretty Little Liars, S. J. Watson’s Before I Go to Sleep, and Ruth Ware’s The Woman in Cabin 10 will be drawn to the drama of feeling like no one is on your side, the high tension of not knowing who you can trust, the hair-raising truths hidden among lies, and a faceless, nameless presence controlling Eliza’s life from the shadows.

Great hunting story!

I thought halfway through I had the whole thing figured out. Boy was I wrong and then some. Loved the story! love the way it was written and love the way it was told.

amazing

great nooks keeps you on your toes for sure keeps you guessing even after its over

Pay attention.

I liked this book. Must pay attention with so many twists and turns! Don’t be distracted.

Finally something different

I was expected another twist of PLL. This is Sarah Shephard’s best book. It’s adult and beguiling and different than anything else she’s done. It’s Gillian Flynn-esque... it’s psychological and a little terrifying. But it was good.
The resolution was pretty predictable about halfway through but i hung on til the end... which left me feeling a little let down as the last twist doesn’t quite settle well. But, again. By far her best work.

it's was just okay

The book was just okay. Very predictable and not very exciting. I was hoping for something to surprise me at the end, but I was disappointed.

Not So Much

I wanted to like this book, and kept waiting for the big twists and turns, but my imagination was way more exciting than the actual book. It had so much potential!!

Last Second Twist!

Really enjoyed this book. Found myself waffling between "she is cray cray" and "everyone else is crazy", which keeps me excited to read. At one point towards the end when things are starting to come together I thought nothing else was going to happen and there were no more twists - and I almost didn't finish the book. I'm glad I did because the best part and twist is at the very end!

fabulous novel that entrigues you even after the
