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!

Dark, twisty mystery. You alternate through 3 different POV timelines. Which slowly unravels the relationships and history of what had happened. 

Highly recommend to anyone wanting a dark mystery.
