Well written book that will have you hooked and turning pages! This book has you trying to figure it all out before then end... but good luck!
I enjoy a well written psychological thriller so was interested to see a brand new author to me in this genre. Kept my interest from start to finish and really enjoyed it.
Wow! What a read! Suspenseful, thrilling and one you won’t want to put down.
What a debut! Can’t wait to read more by this author.
I struggled with this one. A lot of psychological thrillers have been likened to Girl on the Train but honestly I feel like the comparison becomes a bit bland. This is a good book in its own right but I didn't enjoy it as much as I hoped after the comp
I enjoyed the lies we tell. I wanted to unravel the story, to know what had happened and I liked the twist at the end. I would read more books by Meg Carter.
Flowed well enough but not a memorable book by any means. Storyline was predictable but again, easy enough and enjoyable.
This was a steady read, but I felt it was just missing something....
"The Lies We Tell are nothing compared to the lies we tell ourselves”
We all loose touch with friends particularly school friends who move away. Back in the late 80s when part of this tale is set, there was no Facebook, Twitter, mobile phones or even email available like there is today. No, it was all snail mail and landlines so it was much harder to stay in touch, more of an effort than today’s ease of sending a quick text or posting a message on Facebook. But in Kat’s case, Jude her best friend at school, her only friend vanished after one fateful day on the Surrey Hills. As to why, only reading The Lies We Tell will tell you the whole story.
This book wasn’t as dark and twisted as some of the psychological thrillers that I’ve read in past however it was packed with atmosphere and intrigue. What did happen up on the heath? Why did Jude vanish?
This is a well written debut from Meg Carter. My attention was grabbed, I wanted to know the whole truth and what caused the demise of these two girls’ friendship.
Many thanks to Canelo and Netgalley for my ecopy of The Lies We Tell.
