Lies She Told is an amazing blend of psychological thriller and twisty whodunnit! While the first third of the novel feels a bit sluggish and the protagonists unsure and whiny, it quickly evolves into a tale that can't be put down.

Taken from my review from Goodreads:

This book will hit you hard. Sometimes, the poem format feels out of place and I would prefer to read it as a novel, but the flows are good and the message is genuine.

Feels like you're included in a conversation between 2 friends. They are engaging and hilarious and have a warmness you may not expect from a show about murder.

Album Favorite

"I could be wrong but this feels like the most melodic house thing they've ever done, very nice chords etc. Everything from the album so far has been amazing and I read they've got a track with Alan vega on."

Watched the sequel straight after the first one not as good as the first one feels like same plot but on a train this time instead of a ship but there is plenty of action scenes to like

Character development overall isn't as satisfying

Some of the plot feels forced
I'm conflicted about this book. I definitely liked it better than ACoTaR, but ACoMaF was so incredible that I had high expectations for the third book, and some parts of it just fell flat.

The first bit pacing is a bit slow, but picks up. There were times I felt the writing was a bit cheesy and/or melodramatic, and at times repetitive. For the second book, there was a lot of sexual tension, but in this book it just seems like excessive sexy times since they're already together. A lot of the plot felt forced.

Don't get me wrong, I still enjoyed reading this book! But it definitely felt more like a "guilty pleasure" read.
