If you need an ending with all loose ends tied up, this book is not for you. If you're used to true-crime podcasts that can't tie up the loose ends, you'll be OK. in fact, this book plays on the true crime podcast trend and adds an interesting perspective on what "truth" really means when someone is trying to create a narrative for a true crime podcast. It is called "None of This Is True," after all. Because the truth is...presented differently by different characters, trigger warnings are abundant. 

i do not generally listen to true crime podcasts and still found this book interesting enough to finish.
