The Liar's Child by Carla Buckley
2.0

Thanks to Random House for the free book! // I couldn’t put this one down, and I finished it and was like 🤯😧🤔 but overall, i don’t think I would highly recommend it. The plot felt a lot like a Nicholas Sparks book I read ages ago, with more intrigue (that didn’t even seem super suspenseful or thrilling) and unanswered questions. The characters felt pretty stereotypical (especially the sullen teen) and there were way more loose ends for me than actually compelling plot points. None of the characters are especially interesting or likable, and knowing how it now ends, I’d say it isn’t really worth your time.
