Oh my GOSH are all David Ellis' books this good?! I haven't read a book that fast in a LONG time!

The Best Lies by David Ellis is a twisty tale about corruption and human trafficking. Even when you think you have something figured out..you don't. 

I really enjoyed how twisty this one was. There were times I was confused, but if I kept reading my questions were eventually answered. I love how this one was weaved and strung together. Never, until the very last page, did I have any of it figured out. In the beginning the multitude of POVs can be frustrating and confusing, but I promise if you stick with it the ride is worth it. 

Read if you enjoy:
