Pretty disturbing, good for someone who enjoys thriller and mildly disturbing books. SEE CONTENT WARNINGS PLEASE! I read this book w/out checking content warnings and I'm regretting it. Fans of graphic mysteries will like it tho

This book started slow, but it really picked up towards the end. I loved the unreliable narrator that kept me guessing whole time.

This was a super quick read that kept me on my toes! I loved how the chapters jumped between diary entries from childhood, present time, and the week leading up to her coma. Even though the title is called Sometimes I Lie I was still fooled a few times hahaha but overall I felt the ending was predictable once a certain big secret was revealed. I do love Alice’s writing and I find it super engaging. I’m not a huge fan of how it all ended in the last chapter but overall I enjoyed the story!

surprised at how intense some scenes were, definitely look at the content warnings! otherwise was a bit predictable in parts, and the big twist made the plot more confusing (though it was interesting for sure)
