A review by softcoloursamples
Lie with Me by Philippe Besson

emotional sad fast-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? Character
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

4.0

I wasn’t particularly moved by the first half, the sadness developed slowly over the later parts, unknowingly under my skin. It’s only after finishing the book I noticed that I’ve already started grieving 

I don't think I'll ever stop being amazed by the way "You will leave and we will stay" adds to the characters.

The characters are surprisingly refreshing, especially considering  the predictable development of their relationship
