fargiloses's review against another edition

There was nothing that shocked me or made me learn more about the characters or the development of the plot by the fourth book. Everything was very repetitive in a way that felt like everything and nothing was happening at the same time.

lovelymisanthrope's review against another edition

3.0

I picked this up as my continuation in the "Mindf*ck" series.
"All the Lies" is the fourth book in the "Mindf*ck" series. Lana thinks everything is going well. She has an amazing boyfriend that makes her want to do better and she is almost through her killing list. Unfortunately, Logan is very good at his job, and Lana does not know how this can end well for any of them.
I thought this was going to be my favorite in the series so far...until the last chapter. What the hell? I need a better resolution and I want justice for all involved.
I will definitely be picking up the next book VERY soon.

I get where the author was going with the town. At first it was very cult like but then as more and more information was given it became less and less believable. Not my favorite book. The story is starting to feel a little sloppy to me. Ending made me greatly dislike the love interest.

• I enjoyed this book, I was gripped at the start - wanted to know more about Lana’s history
• Genuinely felt sympathy at Lana’s past and the events that lead her to seek revenge. I didn’t cry, but I felt my heartbreak for her 
• I had a feeling this would be the book that Logan would find out - I thought it would pan out differently, I thought he’d not find out until after all the murders were committed
• Felt like I was rooting for Lana - wanted her to get her full revenge
• Wasn’t expecting Lawrence to be the detective who became suspicious of Lana
• Wasn’t expecting Logan’s reaction 
• I hope Lana will carry out the rest of the murders after she escaped
