Daisy and Simon's marriage looks perfect from the outside, but just under the surface lurks a hidden darkness - can they keep a handle on it before it all goes wrong?
Lies Lies Lies is a rollercoaster of a book. At first I was a little put off by the constant stream of consciousness narrative but it soon got me hooked and I couldn't put the book down. We have alternating chapters between parents Daisy and Simon which give us an interesting insight into their personalities. The first half catches you slightly off-guard as this seemingly normal tale starts to spiral out of control and Simon's alcoholism begins to affect their marriage and their friendships. It's a bit like reading a slow-motion car crash at times until the sudden crescendo comes to a height at around the 60% mark. Here the pace slows down but still manages to keep you gripped.
The characters certainly hold some cards close to their chest, and there are some really nice twists that I did not see coming revealed later on in the plot. The only bit about the book I didn't think worked well was the extra small twist right at the very end (no spoilers!) which I thought muddied the waters a little too much and confused a lot of what went before it. I did feel like a lot of the plot could have been fixed if the characters had just talked to each other which felt frustrating at times but I do know that this is also realistic in some relationships as well!
Overall, Lies Lies Lies is a rollercoaster read and I recommend it. Thank you to NetGalley & Harlequin - Mira for the chance to read the ARC in exchange for an honest review.
