What are you reading? "We were liars" by E. Lockhart

 



Noelia's contribution

Sometimes, I look for new reading on a webpage called Goodreads.com. It's an English readers community where you can find unlimited books on different genders.

 The title caught my attention and made me wonder, Who were the liars? Why did they have to tell lies? I had to read it. I think it is a perfect summer reading. It isn't too long,  300 pages approximately.

 The book is narrated in first-person. The main character is a young adult who lost her memory because she was involved in an accident. She writes a kind of diary to help her remember her past.

> Wikipedia - We Were Liars is a 2014 young-adult novel by E. Lockhart. The novel has received critical acclaim and won the Goodreads Choice Award for Best Young Adult Fiction. It was also listed as an ALA Top Ten Best Fiction for Young Adults for 2015.

We Were Liars focuses on the theme of consequences of one's mistakes. It is centered on the wealthy, seemingly perfect Sinclair family, who spend every summer sitting gathered on their private island. However, not every summer is the same—when something happens to Cadence during the summer of her fifteenth year, the four "Liars" (Cadence, Johnny, Gat and Mirren) re-emerge two years later to prompt Cadence to remember the incident.
