Reviews with content warning for Violence - Sometimes I Lie

This book is such an enjoyable read! There are so many twists and turns throughout the book that constantly left me guessing, and I was never bored. I'm not giving it the full 5 stars because it does become a little confusing towards the end and opens the possibility for plot holes, and there are still a lot of questions I didn't feel were answered and should have been. Regardless, I would recommend this book to any mystery lover who enjoys a bit of thrill and isn't afraid of dark topics. This is my kind of book.

The twists and turns kept me so engaged. I love the way Alice leaves no stone unturned. She wraps every detail she mentions into a nice little bow. Her use of similes and metaphors are so creative. It’s a dark and intense ride that you close your eyes for sometimes, but damn does she deliver. This is the second book I’ve read of hers and she’s quickly becoming my fave in this genre

I did not figure out the main plot lines early so I really appreciate that!

I have read many books from Alice Feeney and will continue to do so. Never disappointed by all the twists and turns. I always try to guess and never manage to get it right 😭 Always have to pause the audiobook and rewind multiple times because I just cannot believe what’s happened sometimes! Literally listened to it all in one day. Couldn’t stop! Even at the gym! 🤣
