I really liked this, possibly more than the first book. It was twistier, and I really liked the narrator that read for Knox, who was a great cutie character.

A great follow up to One of Us is Lying! I was just as invested this time around. McManus has the multi-POV style down to a science. Great pacing, great POV switching, great trickling of info and wonderful payoff come reveal time!

This book was soooooo good, this book has such good foreshadowing which is so easily over-looked. The ending has me stunned and I can’t even begin to process what just happened!

Personally I didn't like this one as much as the first book until the very end because I just disliked all the characters so I just couldn't get into it. I think this author is just not for me and I should just stick the the tv adaption but i will be giving the next book a read.

I really enjoyed this! Not as much as the first, but it was still really good. I just really like the characters she writes and I love that we got to see the characters from the first in this. Also how the events of the first book effects this one. Now it didn’t get interesting plot wise for the first like 50%(I don’t really care because I like the characters and relationships). The last part of this book I did not see coming my jaw dropped.
