Julie Clark's The Last Flight is one of my favorite thrillers of all time, so needless to say this next one was highly anticipated. While I still loved The Last Flight more, this was a quick and fun read.

VIDEO REVIEW OF THIS BOOK CAN BE FOUND HERE: https://youtu.be/1wjGGr9SZKY?t=727

This book is about two women, one of them is like a shapeshifter she has changed her name many times depending on where she lives, she has always a different job, new job, new people, new connections and then there's this reporter who has been trying to catch her for many, many years because she did something that changed her life.
So they end up meeting again.
One of them is now a real estate agent the other one still a reporter and they are trying to interact with each other, when no one is really telling the whole truth because one is someone that keeps on changing her story and who she is and the other one is trying to discover more about this person.
So their interactions are weird and the book keeps on changing from one point of view to the other.
I really like this book, I have to say this. I want to read more books by Julie Clark.
I think that even though i usually read like thrillers or mysteries or things like that, I've never read something like this, something with lie two main characters, two women and this kind of personalities that maybe are assigned more to men in books or stories.
It's a really good book, I think that the ending, it's not only the ending but the things you start to realize as you are reading them, they shock you. You don't expect them, it's good, it's really, really good, I really liked this one and I highly, highly recommend it.

Thank you for the copy of this book.
It was a twisted adventure. Kept me guessing and feeling for the characters the whole book.

I recently finished reading "The Last Flight" by Julie Clark and I must say, it was a great read. Having never read any of her books before, I was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed it.

The story is told from two perspectives - those of two strong women, Kat and Meg. Kat is a journalist who is determined to expose Meg for what she believes to be her true identity as a con artist. Meg, on the other hand, is hiding something and has her own reasons for returning. She has someone she wants to expose too.

The plot is complex and well-developed, with plenty of twists and turns along the way. It's not your typical thriller, which makes it all the more interesting. Instead, it's a slow-burn type of story that is deeply satisfying.

The characters are well-crafted and their motivations are clear. I found myself rooting for both women at different points in the story, which is a testament to the author's ability to create relatable and compelling characters.

Overall, "The Last Flight" is a great book that will keep you engaged from start to finish. If you're a fan of thrillers, I highly recommend giving this one a try. It's a well-written, character-driven story that will keep you guessing until the very end.

Loved this book! Did not expect to like this better than the last flight but I did! The perfect twisty thriller that kept me on the edge of my feet! Totally recommend this to all other thriller lovers.

The Lies I Tell by Julie Clark
Published June 21, 2022 by Sourcebooks Landmark

This was my first Julie Clark novel, and I'm sure it won't be my last. This twisty domestic thriller told the story of two women, one of whom had a long history as a con woman and the other who was seeking revenge on the woman who she believes upended her life. But things are never as simple as they seem. Sometimes the cross turns into the double cross. And sometimes what looks like justice is actually revenge. This book was very cleverly plotted with short chapters, alternating viewpoints and split timelines. I thought it was hot read that kept me flipping pages and guessing about these women right up until the very end. If you're looking for a compulsively readable summer thriller that you won't be able to put down, add this one to your list!
Thank you to Netgalley and Sourcebooks Landmark for providing me with a galley in exchange for my honest opinion.

Meg is a con artist, and has spent years perfecting her craft of telling everyone what they want to hear until she gets her hands on what she wants then disappears.

Kat has been waiting for 10 years to find the women who upended her life. Now that she's finally found her, she is determined to be the one to expose her.

The Lies I tell is such a twisty book following these strong women's past and present. There is so much going on that you cannot put the book down unless you are taking a second to process something that just happened. I greatly enjoyed this twisty tale that kept me guessing to the end.

Special thanks to Netgalley and Sourcebooks Landmark for the digital book in exchange for a candid review.

This was a great book. It was suspenseful and kepy me guessing. This is the first time reading a Julie Clark novel. I will definitley be reading more of her books.

Julie Clark is quickly becoming one of my favorite new authors. I adored her last book but The Lies I Tell was even better. Twisty and turny, it kept me guessing until the very end.

5 FREAKING STARS!! Her writing is amazing and engaging and riveting, Such a well written book that had me thinking about it days after. How do you not fall in love with Meg's character as she journeys through a sick mom, homelessness, and a con artist. The suspense kept me going. Such a great read!

This what not my kind of my book. Predictable and less than thrilling, this book did not intrigue me at all. Some parts were interesting, but overall, it wasn't worth the time..

I found the characters hard to relate to, maybe I just missed something. It all seemed a little too... All men are bad? I don't know. Maybe this just wasn't the book for me. I will not share my review outside of netgalley because I can't find the right words to explain why it didn't resonate for me.

You will not be able to put this book down! It is so freaking good. The storyline seems simple, until you read it, and realize how great the author is at spinning the plot twists up.

My review as posted on Goodreads:

I am grateful that the publishers provided a copy of this book to read and review. Wow! I could not put this book down and read it in less than 12 hours today. Clark did an amazing job creating characters that I hated and loved at the same time. I wanted Meg to be caught but wanted her to succeed too! And Kat’s epilogue? Brilliant! So different than what I expected! I’d highly recommend this book…great summer read!

Great dual timeline story. Two women out for revenge, except one wants revenge on the other. I was rooting for them both - one because she was fighting for the greater good. The other because she was fighting for herself. The end, kinda expected but still amazing. I stayed up until 2 am to finish.

I absolutely loved loved loved this book! The plot was very simple to read with only a few main characters which made the story really easy to follow and connect. The story itself was fantastic and I loved learning about Meg and how her and Kats story intertwined and ultimately played out. I do wish we learned a little more about Megs alter egos… Cory’s story was the biggest part of the plot so I don’t really count that as learning about Megs past; I loved hearing about Phillip and would have loved another example. Overall this wasn’t a “twisty” thriller (I am not even sure if this is a thriller lol), but it was a great story of revenge and how peoples actions aren’t always how they originally seem to be!

THIS BOOK! The writing was great, the characters were so well developed, the evil characters killed it, the con artists were better than I expected and i am so glad i picked it up because it was very unexpected but in a good way!!!!

Clark's writing is engaging and evocative, creating a vivid and immersive world that is both captivating and terrifying. The tension and suspense in the novel are expertly crafted, and the pacing is spot on, ensuring that readers will be unable to put the book down.

Overall, The Lies I Tell is a gripping and entertaining read that is sure to satisfy fans of the thriller genre. With its well-crafted plot, complex characters, and expert pacing, it is a must-read for anyone looking for a page-turning novel that will keep them up late into the night.
