A review by alliebookworm
None of This Is True by Lisa Jewell

dark tense medium-paced

2.5

Well-written, but not my cup of tea. The first three quarters of the book are *beyond* slow but sure do hint at SOMETHING THAT HAS HAPPENED thanks to the Netflix documentary clips (“and then… well, we all know what happened then, don’t we?” x20). But then the last quarter is so insanely different that it almost feels disconnected from the setup. I ended it feeling very unresolved and frustrated.
Also I can appreciate an unreliable narrator, but to have so much of the plot in a plot-heavy book rely so heavily on one makes it very hard to connect.
(On the plus side, outstanding production value for the audiobook.)
