A review by michelle_my_belle
Everyone Here Is Lying by Shari Lapena

dark mysterious tense fast-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? It's complicated
• Loveable characters? No
• Diverse cast of characters? No
• Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

3.0

I thoroughly enjoyed the first half to 3/4 of this book. It kept me on my toes. But the last chunk kind of fell flat. I also was really bothered by how neurodivergence was portrayed so negatively, specifically ADHD and autism.
