The Five Year Lie by Sarina Bowen
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
This book has the most intriguing premise: woman receives text from her dead ex that he needs to talk to her and she should meet him under this one tree. When I read that, I knew I would be interested in reading the story and understanding how the author navigated this plot.
And it didn’t disappoint.
The story is twisty and turny and I really couldn’t stop reading it once I started. I really enjoyed that it wasn’t trying to be too clever and that it didn’t have a conniving unreliable narrator. It was just a great mystery!
with gratitude to netgalley and Harper Perennial and Paperbacks for an advanced copy in exchange for an honest review
