Something to know about me is I LOVE books that have a podcast element to them and Listen for the Lie was definitely a standout.

I was a fan of our main character, Lucy from the minute she hit the page and her grandma, Beverly was everything.  The banter, the sass, the sarcasm, the humor they both had was done well. 

I had fun trying to figure out who was really guilty- Amy Tintera kept me on my toes. 

There are certain types of books that kill it as an audiobook and books with podcasts hit almost every time!  The audiobook was fantastic. 

This was done so incredibly well and I loved every minute of it.  I definitely think this is one of my favorites of the year so far.
