“Trust me, there’s no pleasing people. If they’re determined to think the worst of you, they will.”
“Like I told you, better to be interesting than likable.”

I really enjoyed Listen for the Lie by Amy Tintera. This was the first book of hers I have read and I will definitely be reading more.
What happens if you don't know if you killed your best friend and everyone in your hometown, including your parents and ex-husband thing that you did. This was an addicting thriller that kept me wondering who did it. Lucy heads back to her hometown for her grandma's birthday party. She has been away for 5 years, after her best friend was murdered. Her grandma plans this party so Lucy has to meet Ben, who has a podcast about the murder. Lucy does not remember what happened that night and Ben is trying to get her to remember. I really enjoyed the podcast format of the book and how it was entwined with Lucy's chapters from current and 5 years ago. This book is full of red herrings and kept me on my toes.
Thank you to NetGalley and Celadon Books for an ARC of Listen for the Lie by Amy Tintera for an honest review.

DAMN THAT WAS GOOD! I mean, once I started I didn’t want to put it down. I was thinking about it while I was cooking and doing dishes. A unique style with the podcast in between chapters made for a thrilling story! I bet the audio of this is dynamic! Definitely going to buy a copy for my keep shelf! Many thanks to the publisher and netgalley for this early copy for read and review
