Alix Summers is celebrating her 45th birthday at a pub and another woman Josie Fair notices they share the same birthday and lets her know they are birthday twins. Josie realizes Alix is a podcaster and comes up with an idea to tell Alix her story because she needs to change her life.
It appears everyone has already read this one!
But if you like
- unreliable characters
- questioning of what is true (hence the title)
- a mid-life story
You might enjoy this one!
“Anyway, it’s weird isn’t it? The idea of two people being born in the same place, at the same time…
…
But to meet one of them. On your birthday.” P15
“He doesn’t deserve to know every last thing she does. Nathan has his own priorities, his own secrets. She should have some, too.” P81
“… got what you might call an elastic relationship with the truth… When she doesn’t like the reality of things, she finds a reality she prefers.” P163
