Customer Reviews
I loved everything about it except...
Truthfully I rarely write reviews but always rate the books I read. Mostly I read physiological thrillers as they are my favorite genre. The Lies We Told was well written, kept me engaged throughout and I honestly loved it. The only reason I rated it 4 stars instead of 5 was the ending. Admittedly, I normally like an ending like this one, I mean it is a PT - you expect a (for lack of a better word) ‘cliffhanger’ of some sort. However, due to how much I liked Clara & Mac, I wanted an actual “ending” to the story - good or bad. But overall that’s a tiny personal flaw that is probably just my opinion alone, and I encourage all lovers of physiological thrillers to read this one. I don’t think you’ll be disappointed.
