laugh4life1998 's review for:

The Lies That Bind by Emily Giffin
3.5
challenging emotional funny reflective sad tense medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

R- some sex scenes but not overly detailed, this is about where I’d draw the line on what is okay to read. The F word was also used a couple times.  
This was definitely a sad, rollercoaster but real world type relationship/story and I really liked the book because of that!
