Ruth Ware is one of my favorite authors, but I don't think this book had the best build up of tension. Lots of drama though! I was very curious about the mystery that the women were hiding, but I felt like the plot was a bit too slow moving. I think I would have preferred hearing other characters' POVs instead of just staying in Isa's head. I did love the creepy atmosphere of the setting. Kate's home is a tumbledown mill right on the water. A solid mystery, though I was hoping for more suspense, less drama. Disclosure: I received a copy of this book from the publisher through Edelweiss in exchange for an honest review. (  ) bookofsecrets | Jan 14, 2024 | It Always Comes out in the Wash I am off to a really good start this year go me in 2022. It’s been 21 days and I haven’t bought a book yet and for me that is progress. The Lying Game was one of the two books given to me by my secret Santa from my online book club. What I love about The Lying Game is that it’s an evocative and page-turning novel that will leave an imprint on the psyche of those who read it. I finished it a few days ago and the story still stays with you. Lying to protect those you love? Or telling the truth and ultimately hurting those who need you the most? Ruth Ware does a phenomenal job at slowly bringing her readers into the story and then smacking them with the cold hard truth. She has a way of making dark characters very likable and keeping the reader engaged from start to finish. This is a great book. It's a bit dark, and the setting sets the mood up for this perfectly. It's a bit sad- finally understanding what was really going on is sure to turn the coldest hearts soft. And it's an overall powerful read. I have read three books by Ms. Ware and I have to say this one kept me the most engaged. Overall, a very solid four stars. I know that you are going to say that this review doesn’t say much about the story and you would be correct I didn’t. I will however say that this story tests the bonds of friendship beautifully and is worth every minute I spent reading it. ( ) b00kdarling87 | Jan 7, 2024 | sin reseñas | añadir una reseña

HTML: Tras el desbordante éxito de La mujer del camarote 10, Ruth Ware vuelve con un thriller psicológico sobre el complejo mundo de la amistad femenina, la fuerza destructora de las palabras dichas y no dichas, y la imposibilidad de eludir nuestros compromisos. Cuando Isa recibe un mensaje en plena madrugada que dice «os necesito», comprende enseguida que el pasado ha vuelto para ajustar cuentas. Pese a que ha hecho lo indecible por olvidar aquel episodio oscuro que marcó su adolescencia, su fidelidad a Kate se antepone a todos sus temores. Así que no duda un instante en tomar el primer tren desde Londres hasta el pueblo costero de Salten, donde la marea baja acaba de dejar al descubierto los restos de un cadáver. Al mismo lugar acudirán Fatima y Thea, las otras dos chicas de aquel cuarteto tan especial que en el internado formaban una piña, una unión que culminó en una promesa solemne. Aficionadas al peligroso juego de las mentiras y a saltarse las normas del colegio, sus caminos se separaron de forma abrupta y dramática. Ahora, este reencuentro súbito las obliga a revisar sus recuerdos y a compartir sus secretos sobre el episodio que cambió sus vidas, aunque con ello afloren unas cuantas verdades para las que quizá no estén preparadas. La crítica ha dicho... «Espeluznante, cautivador e ingenioso.» «Atrapa desde la primera página.» «Tenso y provocador.» «Intensamente claustrofóbico.» «Quien se siente a leer este libro hará bien en cancelar todos los planes previstos para el fin de semana, porque no querrá levantarse del asiento.» «Adictivo, absorbente y muy inquietante, Juego de mentiras es de lectura obligada para los amantes del No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |
