but! if you want the entire mystery of not one but two deaths/disappearances/losses to be explained in, i shit you not, a couple of paragraphs about ten pages from the end, give this a shot. like? i really thought when i was about halfway through this that i was going to give it like four stars, at least, because the mystery was really good in the beginning. fiona used people just as much as she was used, and i guess spending 370 pages of listening to her judge others for things she personally wouldn't have done while she herself did things others wouldn't have done was just one big Clusterfuck. everyone had their own flaws, and fiona liked to make sure we knew that she had them but it was almost beat into our heads by the end that she felt that she was lesser than because she wasn't the same size she'd been a year before. I really don't think there's a single character in this book that i genuinely liked or cared about. last girl lied to certainly isn't bad but it's definitely not something i'm going to tell everyone around me to read because it really is a lot of "ok." and the book wasn't bad, at all, but if i ask myself if it was good, i just kinda "eeeeeeehhhhhh" to myself because i don't know. by goodreads standards, it means the book is okay.

I received an ARC of this from the publisher from a giveaway here on Goodreads! Thank you!Īh, the dreaded two-star review. Told in alternating chapters between the past and the present, Last Girl Lied To is a gripping emotional thriller. The closer Fiona gets to finding out what happened, and the closer she gets to Jasper and Beau, the more she realizes that the girl she knew better than anyone may have been a carefully constructed lie-and she might have been waiting to disappear the entire time. Piecing together the trail of a girl who doesn't want to be found leads her to Jasper, Trixie’s former friend with benefits, and Beau-the boy who turned Fiona down, who loved someone else, who might be happy Trixie is gone.

Trixie’s disappearance is ruled a suicide, but Fiona starts to believe that Trixie isn’t really dead. But the truth is, she wishes she could forget. Fiona claims she doesn’t remember anything about the night her best friend left a party early and walked into the ocean.
