✨ Book Review✨

Listen for the Lie

Author: Amy Tintera 

Rating: 4.5/5 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌗


Listen for the lie is a one-sitting page-turner. Everyone has secrets and I honestly couldn’t pinpoint who did it. 


Lucy Chase is forced to return to her hometown 5 years after being accused of murdering her best friend. New evidence comes to light when TrueCrime Podcaster Ben Owens reopens the case. With no memory of that night, Lucy must come to terms with the fact that she may have murdered her best friend or retrace her memory to solve her best friend’s murder. 

The characters were absolutely perfect. The small-town vibe with big secrets. The main character Lucy Chase is sarcastic, witty, and funny. I loved that she embraced who she was. I am inspired to be that carefree. Her grandmother Beverly is hilarious and like Lucy lives her life freely dismissing judgment from others. 

I loved the formatting of the podcast interviews in the book. Overall I really enjoyed this book. I did wish that the ending was a little more detailed or explained further. This is more than a thriller if you enjoy drama, betrayal, and secrets, and a page-turner I’d highly recommend this book.

A lot of unnecessary romance between characters that feels very out of place. I think this book could have been about 100 pages shorter without all the filler.
