Lying Out Loud by Kody Keplinger
3.0

Okay I'm the kind of person who likes likeable characters or if not likable relatable or intriguing if none of that is in the book a really interesting plot can save it

With this book you're not really supposed to like sonny, she's a liar plain and simple. She lies to her teachers, her boss, even her best friend, it's pretty much the plot of the book how her lies get her into lots of trouble. I found myself getting so, so frustrated at her as the book continued.

I wanted to throw my book across the room at points because her problems could be so easily fixed if she was honest, but she chooses not to be. I’ll admit some of her reasons for lying are understandable. Annoying but understandable

And the most annoying part she that the has literally the greatest friend in the history of the universe that she treats like poop, and is super mean to the main love interest, Ryder throughout the first third of the book for barley any reason at all

In the end I hated Sonny with a burning passion like truly despised her and it’s really hard to root for a person you hate so…
