The Lies We Told | 
Happy 4th!! This is my plan for the night!!
Last line: But even if she got ten years or more, it didnt really matter...theyd all get what they deserved in the end.
First line: At first I mistook the severed head for something else.
so-soEhhh. The book was very slooooow paced. It was suspenseful and it kept you wanting to find out what happened and what the true story was but it just didnt do it for me. The ending was full of twists and turns but still everything felt predictable. Wouldnt recommend.

pickGreat engrossing read. Give yourself some time because the moment you pick this up you'll want to read in one sitting. Characters may be not so likable but the plot is so good and the mystery element will keep you guessing and there's plenty of surprises along the way.
Well..my train is delayed...i dont know how long..BUT...i have 2 books with me, so im good!
This Tuesday book lunch date- Taco salad 🌮
pickThis book had so many surprises inside! This book starts out in the 1980s but the very next chapter is set in 2017 and it keeps going back and forth between every chapter. At first the 2 stories seem unrelated but slowly pieces start to fit together and you make connections. Psychological thrillers have been my most enjoyable reads lately and this one sits towards the top of my favorites!
pickI loved this book, it was my first #bookofthemonth picks ever. It went back and forth each chapter changing perspective but it was clear and easy to follow.
Getting some reading in for #readanebook week while the kiddo does her #homeschool work. ?? So far, this one is really giving me "Baby Teeth" vibes. So creepy!
#fridaybookday
1. The lies we told by Camilla Way (I haven‘t read it yet but look forward to read it)
2. Any Rick Riordan Book
3. How to be a Bawse by Lilly Singh
4. Looking for Alaska by John Green
5. @Eggs @LaraReads @Purpleness
pickI really couldn‘t put this down. Super twisty and creepy. If you liked We Need to Talk about Kevin or Baby Teeth, this had some interesting similarities. So glad to have gotten to read this. It was truly an awesome pick. I‘ll be sending it back to its origin this weekend 😊 #lmpbc
pickLuke‘s sister, Emily, disappeared years ago and now Luke himself has disappeared. This is a good, dark, twisty thriller with a wicked ending. It had me saying, “wait, what?” at least once and I didn‘t figure it out early. I would definitely read this author again. #botm
Making my way through my towering #botm pile! Hoping this thriller doesn‘t disappoint ✌️
Another snow (cold) day, another finished book. It‘s a quick read and kept my attention all the way to the end. Lots of twists and turns!
I am trying to clear my #unreadbotmbooks from my tbr. This is a short 300 pages so should be a quick forgettable thriller. I don‘t have very high hopes for this one.
pickI tore through this book. The mental illness was represented so realistically there was nothing to critique. The ending was perfectly realistic as well; it wasn‘t too happy which is my style! I appreciated this story.
pickAn unputdownable pych thriller with multiple twists following two narrators and time periods. I loved its clever storyline and found it intriguing trying to figure out the puzzle pieces. And that Hannah was so deeply demented she gave me the chills. I highly recommend this #botm club pick - chalked full of disturbing secrets and lies it‘ll sure keep you guessing, it did me! 👍🏻 4.5 stars
This arrived yesterday! The package was a little beat up and dirty so I don‘t know what happened on its journey but it‘s safely to its destination. I love thrillers so I am excited to get reading!

pickDevoured this one as quickly as my leftover holiday desserts! Lots of good twists, really kept me guessing.
Last week's #libraryhaul. The tagged is one I requested my library get from my #newyearwhodis list.
pickClara's boyfriend Luke goes missing one night. When Clara realizes he hasn't come home, she goes looking for him, trying to figure out what happened. As she digs, she gets drawn deeper and deeper into numerous mysteries, including what happened to Luke's sister Emily who disappeared twenty years before. This is a twisty, turny thriller that kept me reading late into the night. #TheLiesWeTold #CamillaWay #NetGalley
pickHi everyone! I really enjoyed The lies we told. This book was crazy all the stuff that was going on. I never knew what would happen next. It's a perfect murder mystery. #litsy #kindle #kindlefire #paperwhite #library
so-so#lmpbc #groupc @whippoorwill815 @OriginalCyn620 @Victoriahoperose
While I had a hard getting into this book, I did end up liking it by the end. When is the sequal due to come out?
It‘s hard to quit reading and get up when you‘ve got a giant love bug giving you snuggles. #dogsoflitsy
pickI enjoyed this book more that I expected to. It kept my attention and made you wonder what was going to happen next. I gave it 4 stars because of the twist at the end.
⭐⭐⭐⭐
114 pages in. Not sure what to make of it but still interesting.
so-soI did enjoy this book, however I had higher hopes for the ending. It lacked structure for me. I found myself identifying with Clara the more I learned about her as a character. I felt her emotions on every page... almost like I'd been there before personally.
Moral of the story: Be careful who you trust - no matter who they are.
pickClara‘s boyfriend, Luke, goes missing. There are many layers to get to the bottom of everything in this one. It started out slow for me but then it is twist after twist and a straight up moment when I said “Holy Sh*t” out loud while reading. I can‘t say I was really rooting for any of the characters but getting to the bottom of the mystery was more than enough to keep me engaged throughout.
so-soAverage thriller. Pretty insane and reasonably creepy ‘bad‘ guy (girl). Most of the characters were fairly unlikeable; the main character wasn‘t particularly objectionable but she wasn‘t very interesting or sympathetically written, either. A few twists, mostly uninteresting secrets...but fast-paced enough to not pan it all-together.
New BOTM thriller to read. Anyone has a thumbs up or down on my friends list?
pickA quick and fun read. Some twists were predictable, some were a bit more surprising. I mentioned before that it had a few editing errors that were annoying, but overall a good thriller.
Jus finished my pick for #lmpbc! It was crazy (in a good way) and the twists kept coming! @cwarnier I‘ll mail this to you on Monday, but I don‘t have your address. Did I miss an email with the group addresses?
#groupc
I'm enjoying this thriller so far, but there are a number of typos like this that make following the timelines difficult and distract from the story. Anyone else notice this?
Halfway through and I‘m really digging this book!!
pickThis was my #BOTM pick for October. Overall, it was an engaging book that I enjoyed reading. It was actually pretty perfect for me right now, as I am having trouble reading anything too heavy. This one kept me interested and turning pages. It was fun to try and figure out the mystery as I read.
pickHoly smokes! The Lies We Told is a rollercoaster of a ride with so many twists and turns. I devoured the book in one day. All you need to know is that Clara‘s boyfriend, Luke, goes missing. Sorry for being brief, but the less you know the better the book will be.
Congrats Carrie! 😘😘 You were my first Litsy gift swap partner and I couldn‘t be happier to have gotten to know you more since then! 🤗🤗
I have loved so many books this year, but this is one of my most recent favorites! It really grabbed my attention from the first page and I couldn‘t put it down. I read an e #arc of it, but it was good enough to own so I ordered a physical copy for my bookshelf! I highly recommend #thelieswetold! #70kgiveaway
My next read while I continue my day of horror films.
pickAbsorbing from the very first pages, this #BOTM pick certainly kept me turning the pages! While I didn‘t really like any of the characters, I still wanted to know what would happen next! And the ending is certainly begging for a sequel!!
Getting a bit of reading time in while puppy sitting for @Felso . It‘s a beautiful day in Texas for some outdoor reading. Started this book last night and am really enjoying it so far.
