All I Said Was True by Imran Mahmood
3.0
My second book of Mahmood's and I was reading and reading just waiting for SOMETHING to happen but nothing did.
Layla has been arrested after being found cradling the body of Amy who has been stabbed. After being arrested all Layla will say is find Michael to find what they need to know.
It moves between a now and then narrative. Now being the interview and after the crime happened narrative and the then which is the days leading up to the crime narrative.
It’s very slow paced, the main character isn’t likeable, and is very unreliable and all these added together just put me of the book. I read it all to see how it would all end but I was just left utterly disappointed and kind of frustrated because this had potential and could have worked really well.
