Here’s my review of “First Lie Wins” by @ashleyelston 🤥

👏🏻This book is tops when it comes to twisty-turny. I was shocked at the ending (bravo!). At one point, @ashleyelston shared a clip of her plotting this thriller, which was wild! I loved the behind-the-scenes look at how she kept everything straight

👏🏻I also loved the writing style incorporating flashbacks, and adding depth to the story.

👏🏻The character of Evie was phenomenal! She was witty, smart, real, top of her game, and it didn’t end with her! It was great timing reading this during Women’s History Month because I felt the magic of strong women!

As you can see, I loved this book and I’d recommend it if you’re looking for a fun and fast thriller. Happy reading!
