Sometimes I Lie by Alice Feeney
4.0
dark mysterious tense medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Complicated
Loveable characters: No
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

Overall, this was a good read!
Having the narrator be unreliable really lead to a unique and interesting twist.
I could NOT put this book down toward the last 100 pages! That being said,
because the narrator is not who we think she is and the fact that she lies,
some of the plot points in this book were a bit tricky to follow. I had to go back and reread some sections a few times based on new information that was given.
Also, the storyline with Edward felt slightly out of place? It felt like it was a part of the main plot and that he was the main antagonist, but then her “sister” actually was (which is a MUCH better twist imo) but then everything with Edward just felt like a waste.
I did enjoy this read. I may have to go back and reread it again knowing how to book ended,
as that really changed EVERYTHING we learned!
