Last Girl Lied To by L.E. Flynn
i think this had so much potential, and fiona was such a good, real, fully-forming teenage girl. there was so much to be said about being a girl who doesn't know who she is yet, following others, not feeling like you know your own body. a lot about mother/daughter relationships. i liked it for that.
but the weight of the sagging, dull middle almost got me to stop listening. nothing happened for a long stretch except for the weakest part of this whole story -- the classic YA shoehorned romance/children kissing part. i shed a tear every time a young, vibrant girl with potential.
regardless, the bits and pieces where fiona and trixie interacted, and the careful unraveling of the reality of their friendship, makes this one worthwhile.
