Despite the challenges—an unreliable narrator, an intricate plot, a shifting timeline, and myriad characters—Stephanie Racine gives a flawless narration of this audiobook. Amber's story begins, simply enough, with a brief confession: She is in a coma, her husband doesn't love her anymore, and sometimes she lies. Wait—what? Made to feel off-balance from the start, listeners can rest assured that they are in the best of hands. Though the pace of the story is relentless, Racine is indefatigable. She transitions with ease among a cast of clearly drawn characters, never missing the mark emotionally and even delivering a chilling melody. This intense thriller is made even better by her performance. A.S. © AudioFile 2019, Portland, Maine

“If you’re looking for a Gone Girl–esque fix, then this is the book for you.” —Cosmopolitan
“A spine-tingling psychological thriller…the joy (and the stress) of this thriller is separating fact from fiction. The creepy feeling at the back of your neck is 100 percent real.” —People
“[An] insanely twisty thriller.” —Entertainment Weekly
“The twists pile up…visceral and haunting.” —Oprah.com
“Alice Feeney’s twisty psychological thriller, Sometimes I Lie, her debut novel, slides neatly into the company of Gillian Flynn’s Gone Girl and Paula Hawkins’s The Girl on the Train. With its various plot twists, it’s a dizzying, disturbing read that becomes hard to put down once Amber tells us, ‘I’m back now and I remember everything.’” —The Minneapolis Star Tribune
“This brilliant psychological thriller kept me guessing until the very last page.” —Jessica Knoll, New York Times bestselling author of Luckiest Girl Alive and The Favorite Sister
“A gripping debut with a brilliant twist, I LOVED it!” —BA Paris, New York Times bestselling author of Behind Closed Doors
“Faster and more twisted than a roller coaster with an ending that’ll make your stomach drop, Alice Feeney’s Sometimes I Lie is not to be missed. I loved it!” —Mary Kubica, New York Times bestselling author of The Good Girl and Every Last Lie
“Propulsive and absorbing. Such a compelling, provocative narrator!” —Flynn Berry, author of Under the Harrow
"Fans of the psychological thriller will enjoy this ambitious debut." —Kirkus Reviews
“The ending is jaw-dropping.” —AARP’s The Girlfriend
“A serpentine tale of betrayal, madness, and murder.... Feeney is definitely a writer to watch.” —Publishers Weekly
“I read this in one compulsive gulp in one day. It’s SO fiendishly clever—an absolute masterclass in plotting and narrative design.” —Richard Skinner, author of The Mirror
“A bold and original voice—I loved this book.” —Clare Mackintosh, New York Times bestselling author of I Let You Go and I See You
“Tightly plotted, superbly written, this is a thriller that grabs you and holds you in its thrall. This story of a woman in a coma recalling the violence in her life gave me just enough information to remain entirely gripped yet sufficiently little that I didn’t know where I’d find the answers, or even the questions at times. I was led—completely willingly—in various different directions and until the final few pages I was baffled yet engrossed. And then, suddenly, at the very end, everything became clear. A brilliantly assured debut and a real achievement.” —Nicholas Searle, author of international bestseller The Good Liar
“Exceptional in plotting…Expect perfectly embedded twists and sharply drawn characters. A brilliant thriller.” —Ali Land, author of Good Me Bad Me
