About this listen

When Alix's charismatic girlfriend, Swanee, dies from sudden cardiac arrest, Alix is overcome with despair. As she searches Swanee's room for mementos of their relationship, she finds Swanee's cell phone, pinging with dozens of texts sent from a mysterious contact, L.T. The most recent text reads: "Please tell me what I did. Please, Swan. Te amo. I love you." Shocked and betrayed, Alix learns that Swanee has been leading a double life - secretly dating a girl named Liana the entire time she's been with Alix. Alix texts Liana from Swanee's phone, pretending to be Swanee in order to gather information before finally meeting face-to-face to break the news.

Brought together by Swanee's lies, Alix and Liana become closer than they'd thought possible. But Alix is still hiding the truth from Liana. Alix knows what it feels like to be lied to - but will coming clean to Liana mean losing her, too?

I liked it

What made the experience of listening to Lies My Girlfriend Told Me the most enjoyable?

The plot line is probably the best part. Pretty touching. Moving? I'm not sure what the exact right word is to use but I kind of felt something.

What other book might you compare Lies My Girlfriend Told Me to and why?

I don't think I would exactly compare it to other books but if I had to make a reach (within my scope of knowledge) I might compare it to Hood by Emma Donoghue. It's similar in major plot themes, sorta kinda???

Have you listened to any of Christine Lakin’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

No, I haven't. I am not jazzed about this one though. Her voice is just not my style. I appreciate her hard work though!

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

If I was the crying sort maybe I would have? I'm basically dead inside though so don't go by me. This is a moving story.

Wonderfully poignant!

Not only was this book well written I also thoroughly enjoyed the narration! It's been tough finding both in this genre.

Great story

I was a bit hesitant at first to listen to the story and I'm glad I did. I enjoyed the story immensely and the narrator did a great job with the different characters. I love the development between Alix and Liana and how the death and Swanee brought them together as morbid and a bit twisted as it seems. A good mix of drama and heartfelt moments and little gasps in between. Given a read and or a listen to!

WTF are "text minutes"?

Cute story about first love and first betrayal. The only parts that pulled me out of the story were the way the protagonist talked about using her cell phone. She would type a text, decide not to send it, and then say she "ended the call" or once she mentioned going "over her text minutes"... it just served to remind me that the author is from a different generation. "My phone rang, it was a text from her. Why would she call me now?", was it a text or a call?
