I also feel like the title is a kind of spoiler. Like from the first time we start hearing Josie’s story, we expect everything she says to be a lie. Not sure if that was what the author was intending but I think the payoff of the twists would have been higher if I hadn’t had that expectation going in

I’ve seen lots of people saying to listen to the audiobook & I didn’t do that but I can imagine that’s even better than reading it
(I barely remember what happened in friends don’t lie but I felt like this book reminded me of that one?)
