First Lie Wins: Reese's Book Club A Novel
by Ashley Elston
View in Library Catalog
book cover


I was intrigued for about the first half or so, and then it started to drag for me and I was starting to lose interest. I wanted to know how it ended (I had a prediction), so I made myself finish reading it. My prediction wasn't right, but it wasn't too far off. The twist(s) did not blow me away; I was underwhelmed. Prior to reading this book, I had high expectations but ultimately ended up disappointed.

3.5 stars. A little repetitive in The middle I also don’t know how I expected them to survive this novel, but I was really hoping that it wouldn’t be a dismal ending and I was disappointed. I wanted them to somehow fight back however it felt like a letdown that even though I couldn’t come up with a way for them to live. The author couldn’t either.

The beginning of this book was a little slow for me with the technical component. TJR does a great job with completely new subject matter for all of her books but it took me a second to adapt to space plus so many characters. The last 40% was purely amazing. I was crying at the gym literally

Good summer read. Solid mystery. Low danger/peril moments for such an interesting title. No sharks actually encountered. :(

This is a good one. My son can easily fill in the blank while reading this because it is repetitive.

I loved this book! Out of the 3 books I've read so far by Carley Fortune, 2 of them have the friends to lovers trope and are slow burn romances; this is 1 of them. This is also now my fave book by this author (so far). I still need to read 2 more by her.

This book was well written. The author expressed some incredibly insightful ideas beautifully. The story line itself was average. There was domestic abuse which was difficult to read.

BSD is one of my favorite series and every volume I read builds so much for the plot, characters, and relationships. The new settings brought to ex-guild and ex-port mafia members was one of the highlights.

As usual Sally Hepworth wrote a book with twists that I didnt expect. I enjoyed the story being told by Mabel going back and forth from past to present.
Dread nation

What a great zombie story!!!! I loved every minute of this one. Justina Ireland had the perfect amount of description and commentary from her main character Jane. I really did enjoy this one. The blatant racism (due to the setting of the book) was not exceedingly terrible. It was still there and made me dislike certain characters. But it was combatted with the main characters inner commentary and the inclusion of decent folks. And by decent folks I mean those who would be considered abolitionists in that time period. The idea that the Civil War was interrupted by a zombie plague is a genuine genius move. Also, I couldn’t help but develop a southern accent in my head while reading this book! Well done Justina Ireland!
