I have to say that I wasn't expecting much from this book when I picked it up but it turned out much better than my expectation. I was trying to find an easy mystery book to read and was scrolling through my Goodreads bookshelf when this book cover just caught my attention. The author sounds new to me but the book description sounds good enough for me to pick up a copy of it.
The Breakfast Club meets Pretty Little Liars, One of Us Is Lying is the story of what happens when five strangers walk into detention and only four walk out alive. Everyone is a suspect, and everyone has something to hide
Pay close attention and you might solve this.
Simon never makes it out of that classroom. Before the end of detention, Simon's dead. And according to investigators, his death wasn't an accident. On Monday, he died. But on Tuesday, he'd planned to post juicy reveals about all four of his high-profile classmates, which makes all four of them suspects in his murder.
Or are they the perfect patsies for a killer who's still on the loose? Everyone has secrets, right? What really matters is how far you would go to protect them.
The book was easy to read and each Chapter is narrated by one of the four students who soon became a suspect of the murder. The story follows through the event after Simon's death and slowly revealing the secrets that each one of them had to hide.
I loved how each one of the four main characters developed over the course of the events and they all found something new in their life and faced their weaknesses.
The author did a good job in concealing the truth about Simon's death although I managed to guess some of the side stories relating to his death.
Overall a good debut novel by the author and I will look forward to future work by the same author.
If you want an easy read that involves a murder, a mystery to be solved and a hint of romance, this will be the book you might want to pick up next.
