Listen for the Lie

Amy Tintera

4.08 AVERAGE


i’m giving this a 4.5 out of 5, but rounding up because i only had a tiny lil complaint. the main character has a voice in her head and sometimes it felt unnecessary or confusing to add it in. however it was a truly exciting and twisty read. I had suspicions throughout the whole book and every single one of them was wrong, and i loved it. I honestly expected to get bored at some point because a lot of whodunnit books get that way and just ramble at the end, or cut off the ending without much explanation. this was neither and i genuinely enjoyed reading this book from the beginning. whole heartedly recommend.

what a ride... i enjoyed this so much, especially the audiobook. 

If you enjoyed Bright Young Women, you will enjoy this one even more. 

Fun twisty thriller! I listened to the audio and loved the narrators and how they transitioned from Lucy's point of view to the podcast episodes - clever! It was super captivating and witty! Lucy's grandmother was hilarious

This is one of the best audiobooks I’ve heard in a while!

The back and forth between the male and female voice actors was great! I was also hooked and had to listen to the end to find out what happened. Good twists.

Only negative is that Lucy isn’t the most likable but I guess when you go through what she did you’d be bitter too.

What a great read! Loved the main character, she was awesome.

4.5 i really loved this a lot and it definitely kept me turning the pages and i LOVED the MC and she is such a complex character and those are the ones I love to read from and the audio was so do good too I finish this book so fast and stayed up til 3am, I do wish the ending was a tiny bit more fleshed out and thats why I cant get it a full 5 stars other than that I absolutely loved it and didnt see the twists coming
