Publisher Description

In Seven Ways We Lie, a chance encounter tangles the lives of seven high school students, each resisting the allure of one of the seven deadly sins, and each telling their story from their seven distinct points of view.
 
The juniors at Paloma High School all have their secrets, whether it’s the thespian who hides her trust issues onstage, the closeted pansexual who only cares about his drug-dealing profits, or the neurotic genius who’s planted the seed of a school scandal. But it’s Juniper Kipling who has the furthest to fall. No one would argue that Juniper—obedient daughter, salutatorian, natural beauty, and loyal friend—is anything but perfect. Everyone knows she’s a saint, not a sinner; but when love is involved, who is Juniper to resist temptation? When she begins to crave more and more of the one person she can’t have, her charmed life starts to unravel.
 
Then rumors of a student–teacher affair hit the fan. After Juniper accidentally exposes her secret at a party, her fate falls into the hands of the other six sinners, bringing them into one another’s orbits. All seven are guilty of something. Together, they could save one another from their temptations—or be ruined by them.
 
Riley Redgate’s twisty YA debut effortlessly weaves humor, heartbreak, and redemption into a drama that fans of Jenny Han and Stephanie Perkins will adore.

Must read

In her debut novel, Redgate captures the lives and struggles of seven distinct highschoolers whilst their school reels from a shocking rumor.

Redgate has proven herself to be talented when it comes to creating a world that feels utterly authentic and real. The presentation of the ups and downs of highschool and family life are engagingly raw and will make for enjoyable reading.

All seven of her key characters were lovable and brilliantly authentic. Matt was such a sweetheart and I related to Kat and her anxieties. I also loved how Lucas was pansexual and Valentine was asexual as we definitley need more representation of these identities in mainstream literature.

On the whole, this novel is under-rated big time. If you love highschool dramas or soaps, download or pick this book up and cherish it. Highly reccomend.

‼️Please be warned this novel depicts and deals with bullying and parental fighting.
