She remembers this… but there are huge gaps in her memories leading up to her accident.Īpparently Paul’s beloved car was the vehicle crashed in her accident. She is thirty-five years old and is married to a man named Paul. She is aware of the people around her and can hear what they say – she just cannot acknowledge them, make a sound, or move her body. It is Boxing Day and it would appear she has been in a horrible car accident. Now – We first meet Amber Reynolds when she is in a coma. “Despite my internal cries, on the outside I am voiceless and perfectly still.” Now (when Amber is in a coma) Then (the week before Christmas, leading up to her accident) and Before (when Amber was just eleven years old) “ Sometimes I lie” is told via three timelines. “People are not mirrors, they don’t see you how you see yourself.” A thriller riddled with twists and an unreliable narrator ensured that I wasn’t disappointed. I’ve been anxious to read “ Sometimes I lie” ever since I won a copy via a Twitter giveaway.
