in spite of the title being "none of this is true" i was still shocked when the "truth" came out. I think the last chapter was meant to sort of make you wonder maybe she was telling the truth but i dont think so. I definitely did not believe a word of what she said at the end. Wow what a trip though. Super dark. Like an episode of SVU or Snapped but cranked all the way up. I wouldnt say i "liked" this book but it was extremely captivating. People keep saying "the twist" but I didn't really feel like there was one. I was suspicious of Josie very early on so finding out shes crazy wasnt a shock. It was more of a question of okay how crazy is she.
