6.29.2018 - The Last Time I Lied
Thanks so much to NetGalley, Dutton, and Riley Sager for the opportunity to read her new book. I was a big fan of her debut novel, Final Girls, and this one did not disappoint!
Emma got the opportunity to go to summer camp in upstate New York for her first time away from home. She is put in a cabin with older girls and falls under the spell of Vivian, the clear leader of the group. They play Two Truths and a Lie, discovering each other's deepest secrets. Until one night when Emma sees her 3 cabin mates sneak out in the middle of the night never to be seen again.
Fast forward 15 years and Emma is an artist, still fighting her demons from that summer at camp and her role in the girls' disappearance. The camp owner, Franny, spots her and makes an offer to come back to the camp as a painting instructor as Franny reopens the camp for the first time since the girls' disappearance. Emma decides to confront her demons and uses the opportunity to see if she can find out what really happened to the girls.
A great, well-written mystery that has you questioning everyone. Definitely a must-read around the campfire with a side of 'smores!
