"First Lie Wins" by Ashley Elston is a thrilling ride that kept me on the edge of my seat from start to finish. The plot twists took me completely by surprise, adding an exciting layer of suspense to the story. With each passing day and each page turned, I found myself more and more hooked, making it practically impossible to put the book down.
I was delighted to learn that this captivating book will be adapted into a movie, especially with talented individuals like Krista Vernoff involved in the project. While I'm eager to explore more of Elston's work, I can't help but feel a tinge of disappointment that this was her first foray into the thriller genre. However, it's clear that thrillers suit her quite well, and I look forward to seeing what she has in store for us next.
Overall, "First Lie Wins" is a gripping and thoroughly enjoyable read that earns a solid 4.5 stars from me. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a thrilling literary escape.
