ARC Review: The Better Liar by Tanen Jones

Review

I had high hopes for this book but sadly it fell flat for me as I read. I really didn’t care for Leslie. Mary was entertaining and was the highlight of the book for me. For the most part I figured out the one twist early one so that was a bust. The ending was a little lackluster as well but it does touch on an important topic which I liked.

When I read a thriller I expect my heart to be racing and to be on the edge of my seat. With this book I didn’t experience any of those feelings. This felt more like a family saga than a thriller. For a debut novel Jones was able to keep me interested in the story. I am not against reading another book by this author in the future.
