Superficial characters and an unbelievable plot, just not for me ( )
  karenshann | Dec 31, 2019 |
The Darkest Lies by Barbara Copperthwaithe was an interesting read.
The Plot flowed brilliantly and some things that you were certain you had guessed were turned completely on their head.
I loved the way the story jumped from the mother then to daughter, unfolding the story perfectly through Beth's eyes gave us such a profound insight into the inner workings of Beth's teenage thought process.
The characters were extremely diverse and thought provoking and I found myself thinking what if? what if this was my daughter? what would I do faced with an identical situation?
I wasn't overly fond of the mother, I found her to be quite selfish and single minded, but saying that none of us knows exactly how we would behave in this scenario. This sort of plight can bring out the best and the worst in us.
I didn't guess the end and was rubbing my hands together in glee over the sweet poetic justice it brought.
So overall this was a very enthralling read that I enjoyed very much. I received a free e-copy of The Darkest Lies from NetGalley and this is my own honest opinion.
