Book Review: Listen for the Lie

Wow! So so good! The first adult book by Amy Tintera and I loved it. I loved the witty and dry humor that was spread throughout the book but the story line was great! So unexpected and I loved the mixed media of the podcast episodes with hearing Lucy's POV.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5
