Listen for the Lie Review 📚

Lucy and Savannah are two best friends in a small Texas town, but when Sav is brutally murdered and Lucy can't recall the events from that night, the town starts shifting blame to Lucy.

Years later, Lucy returns and agrees to help a true crime podcaster cover the story in hopes of clearing her name and gaining closer. But Lucy isn't prepared for what she finds out... are you?

Omg this was such a fun read! I was completely hooked the entire time. I did it via audiobook, and honestly, it was brilliant! We have the book, but we also get to hear the podcast! It was so cool! I devoured this book in a day!

4 stars!
