Hidden Lies by Lydia Reeves
3.0
4 stars for the RH
3 stars for the overall plot
Minus a fraction of a star for the cover (sorry!)
Super enjoyable, and I'm definitely curious for what comes next. My only hangups revolved around the FMC's choices. There were scenes where she was really smart, figured things out, and everything was great. But then there were multiple scenes where she just makes the typical dumb decisions you see in this genre (e.g., MMC rightfully says, "You're in danger, DO NOT go anywhere alone!" And she's like, "Okay!" and then, of course, immediately goes somewhere alone). I get she's young, but we already know she's smart AND she's been attacked multiple times at this point, so...
But ASIDE FROM THAT, I'm looking forward to the next book. The MMCs were great and the RH subplot was well done. The cliffhanger ending was also well-executed, and I'm anxious to see where it leads.
