Lies in Rewind

As someone who used to read just as much as they breathed, then slowly started to no longer enjoy it. I decided to start this series because the first book was free and it looked decent. I have been HOOKED. I have read both books in about a week and a half. I’m about to start the third and my heart breaks knowing that it’s over. Definitely 10/10 would recommend. The endings are the best.

I loved Love in Rewind and could not wait for this book !! Sara is smart , Hot and has a past full of lies until she meets the British swoon worthy Liam and well the chemistry is just undeniable. Two completely different people both dealing with their own pasts . I knew where I wanted this book to go once I was a few chapters in and I was not disappointed . It's so Hot , so full of emotion and literally left me wanting more !! I also love seeing more of Louis and Emily ...

I really enjoyed this book!! It’s mostly told from Sara’s perspective who is Emily Bruel’s best friend from the first book in the Audio Fools series (Love in Rewind). You get to read about what Sara was going through while her best friend was falling in love. I think it’s easy to make assumptions about Sara’s character when your reading Love in Rewind. But what I loved the most about Lies in Rewind was that all of your expectations and assumptions are completely shattered.

The story starts right off with Sara having a really bad couple of days. But ironically it’s during this struggle that she realizes that the choices she has made in her life have not turned out the way she thought they would. I think it’s a pivotal point in Sara’s life where she is forced to reflect upon the decisions and lies of her past in order to find happiness in her future. Because ultimately the lies that she has told herself and the people around her were hurting her the most in the end.

I think that’s something many of us can relate to. Doing and saying things because that’s what other people expect from us. Sara is by far one of my favorite characters ever. She’s not perfect, she makes mistakes, she’s strong yet vulnerable. But perhaps the most admirable quality in Sara is her fierce protectiveness of the people she loves. Sara just keeps it real and I really admire that. There is one quote in particular that I think sums up Sara’s journey in this book. “I choose me. I choose to love me and make sure that I will be good to me.” I love this quote because I feel like this is the moment that Sara realizes that it’s okay to love and respect herself despite the mistakes she might have made in the past. It’s what you do with the consequences of those mistakes that defines you.

I loved that the 80’s songs are taken to a whole other level in this book. They blend perfectly with the story making it an unforgettable read. If you’re like me and don’t know half the songs referenced in the book, don’t worry! You will be able to click on them in the kindle version so you can listen to them (Pretty cool right!!!). I loved that this series uses songs instead of words sometimes to express feelings. I think we truly see the power of communicating with music in the audio fools books. If you really think about it music is just another way to express yourself and your feelings.
