This Lie Will Kill You by Chelsea Pitcher
5.0
"...They climbed into the car together, three little criminals ducking their heads. Three little lairs, beautiful and terrifying in their capacity for love, their capacity for vengeance."
Clue meets Riverdale in this page-turning thriller that exposes the lies five teens tell about a deadly night one year ago. The story begins with five people getting an invite to a murder mystery dinner they didn’t sign up for, which is already quite unusual. What’s more unusual is that it’s a very exclusive guest list, and the winner of this dinner gets $50,000. Something is definitely off here! At the creepy old mansion where the “dinner” is, suspicion abounds and the secrets begin pouring out.
What I love about this book is that it alternates between the present and the past, showing flashes of what happened one year ago and of course, there are several plot twists – who committed the crime? Who wants revenge? Is anyone really who they seem to be? And will everyone reveal their secrets? The last bit of the book was the most interesting, with everything being revealed, and the mysteries of both, the past and the present being solved. I loved the ending!
Overall Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐/5
