A review by jcutreads
The Hundred Lies of Lizzie Lovett by Chelsea Sedoti

3.0

Listened to some and read some of it. It was cute - and the Ohio, Pittsburgh connection was fun, but the main character was annoying and definitely not 17! She came across as a whiny tween rather than a young lady on the brink of self discovery. Also, the other characters: Michelle, Connor, Rush, Enzo, etc were empty composites of stereotypical secondary characters. The book did hit close to home though because of a suicide by hanging that occurred in my school recently of a seemingly “happy” young girl. I’m sure many kids question “why” at that point, like Hawthorne. I only wish her own story wasn’t so dry and empty.
