Two Truths and A Lie Review

Two Truths and A Lie is by Sara Shepard and is the third book in the Lying Game series. The genre is mystery.

"Sutton Mercer watches from the afterlife as her long-lost twin, Emma Paxton, takes over her identity to solve her murder. But after ruling out her early leads, Emma still hasn’t found Sutton’s killer. A lot of people wanted her dead—but one name keeps popping up: Thayer Vega. When the gorgeous and mysterious Thayer returns to town, Emma has to move fast to figure out whether he’s back for revenge…or if he already got it.

Set in a town where friends can turn into dangerous enemies and everyone harbors dark secrets, The Lying Game is a juicy new series that fans of the #1 New York Times bestselling Pretty Little Liars series—and the hit ABC Family show—will love."~Goodreads

Shepard has a way with words. Since there are only bits and pieces of conversations, it seems like that person is the murderer based on a snippet. So then I go back and forth, debating if they are or not. Some of them seem kind of obvious, but there are others that make you wonder.

I was very sick of Sutton's sister Laurel in this book. Her bratty attitude toward Emma made me want to punch her. How Shepard shows the lives of her little gang of friends is so cool. It's not like a full blown conversation is happening about their lives, which is nice. The little tidbits of information are slowly placed through the series. Thayer is that hot bad boy that you can't help but fall in love with.There is a love triangle forming in a way, but it's so adorable and I like it, probably because it's different. Thayer likes, Sutton, and Sutton is dead. Poor him.

I also think having the series from Sutton's point of view is genius. Some flashbacks can be annoying, but hers add to the story. Sometimes I can't help but feel pity for her.

I can't believe I only have to books left in the series to read (there are a total of six)! I honestly can't wait to find out who the murderer is.
