About this listen

In this foreboding journey into the depths of friendship, three women spend a trip together covering up the secrets between them—but when one lie unravels, there’s no going back.

Jocelyn is ready to get married—and more ready to have fun. She plans a bachelorette trip to North Wales, where she can forget about her strained relationship and focus on the tension among friends instead. It’s a welcome distraction.

Her friend Rowan used to be the wild child. But after having a kid of her own and losing the father in a tragic accident, she’s now the ever-responsible single mother, cautious in every way. Except one.

Cadence doesn’t want to be there. For as long as she’s known her friends, she’s always felt disparate. Maybe it’s because those two share a special bond: Jocelyn’s brother was Rowan’s boyfriend, and they still feel his loss. Or maybe it’s because Cadence has secrets they can never know.

As the trip goes on, their friendship begins to crack under the pressure of all the things they leave unsaid…but those might be the only things that can save them.

A- review

This story was a fun easy listen but the plot was original & kept you guessing until last hour.

So many lies

SO I LIED, Chelsea Ichaso’s first adult thriller is a twisted tale of lies and deception between three long time best friends visiting Wales for a girl’s week.

Cadence has never lived up to the potential she thought she had. Single mother Rowan never got over the loss of her daughter’s father who was Jocelyn’s twin. Jocelyn has lived off her father’s money.

Not one of these three woman has an ounce of integrity. Unlikable to the highest degree, they will stop at nothing to avenge perceived wrongs. Each has stabbed her two friends in the back in ways they can never get back.

Cadence, Jocelyn and Rowan has no business calling each other friends. Frenemies is the kindest word I can use to describe the trio.

I couldn’t stop listening to the audiobook, but I also liked the book less and less the further I I got into story. I doubt I’ll re-listen to SO I LIED although it entertained me a lot.

Lots to twists and turns. Really good, even though the characters are not likable. Great writing, didn't want to stop listening.

Friendships can be dangerous

A gripping tale of betrayal and deceit, this novel follows three friends who discover just how far they’re willing to go to protect their secrets. The story begins with the trio setting off on a bachelorette trip abroad, only to be harassed and st@lk3d by a fellow hotel guest. As the tension builds, questions arise… what have they done to provoke such attention, and how does it end with one of them d3@d? The characters are flawed and relatable, yet also deeply frustrating. Despite wanting to root for them, I couldn’t help but feel that “Karma’s a b***h” as the story unfolded. Ichaso expertly explores the idea that while everyone has secrets, those hidden sins, especially when they come at the expense of others, can lead to devastating consequences.

This book suuuuuucked

If I had been reading and not listening, it would’ve been an immediate DNF. The attempt at plot twists was just dumb confusion. Will avoid this author at all costs
