Review: We Were Liars by E. Lockhart
Publisher: Hot Key Books
Publication Date: May 15
Source: Copy in exchange for review
[ Goodreads ] [ Book Depository ]
Blurb;
A beautiful and distinguished family.
A private island.
A brilliant, damaged girl; a passionate, political boy.
A group of four friends—the Liars—whose friendship turns destructive.
A revolution. An accident. A secret.
Lies upon lies.
True love.
The truth.
We Were Liars is a modern, sophisticated suspense novel from National Book Award finalist and Printz Award honoree E. Lockhart.
Read it.
And if anyone asks you how it ends, just LIE.
Review:
Big thank you to the amazing Hot Key Books for sending a copy of this novel in exchange for a review. This does in no way impact my opinion of the novel and all opinions stated below are my own.
I read this novel a few months ago, around July I think, while I was on a family holiday in Alicante (see picture below of me reading on the balcony from my Instagram). When I first started reading We Were Liars I had read mountains and mountains of gushing reviews & tweets about how amazing and mindblowing this novel was. I have to say that when I first started reading this book, I really wasn't seeing the evidence of the hype surrounding how "awesome" this novel was, but by the time I had finished it- I too was blown away.
