I'll Never Tell
by Catherine McKenzie
***I received this book in a Goodreads Giveaway***
Unexpected ending. It's similar to Big Little Lies in terms of how it's written- different chapters from each character's perspective, plus going back and forth between past and present. The plot revolving around determining the culprit of the 'Amanda situation.' There were a few things that stuck out negatively- lack of creativity in naming the horse- Cinnamon (*eyeroll*), a barn burning down in the middle of a rainstorm (seems unlikely), and someone getting hypothermia in a lake after summer in a short amount of time and no one else affected (again-seems unlikely). The other negative parts of this book were the frequent use of the F-word and some sexual content I did not care to read. Take out all those things and it was a pretty good book. I like mysteries that surprise me. I really thought I had it figured out, but the author put in some nice twists. I plan to read her book The Good Liar. We'll see after that book whether I continue reading this author or not.
