A few too many twists for me!

I am a big fan of The Night Olivia Fell and Behind Every Lie is another thriller with suspense, secrets, and a mother/daughter relationship to unpack.⁣

I loved the alternating POVs and timelines; it switches between Eva, who wakes up in the hospital after being struck by lightning to discover her mother, Kat has been murdered, and Kat's mysterious past. This is very fast paced and I read this in two sittings.⁣ Once you start, it will be tough to pub down.

These two have a complex history and there are so many twists and surprises but some I found to be so obvious and too convenient that it took away from my experience. Some of what these women went through also seemed so extreme - suicide, murder, gaslighting, rape, domestic abuse, disguises, obsessive stalker characters, etc.⁣ There were just a LOT of trigger warnings for one story for me.

Thank you to the publisher for my copy!
