The Lie That Binds by Amy Argent – Review by Kerry Carr

The Lie That Binds by Amy Argent
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I really enjoyed this young adult story. The author does an amazing job with the characters. I was gripped from the beginning and couldn’t put it down.
Holly has moved to a new school, the most popular guy at the school catches her eye. From then I thought it would be a normal teenage romance but it’s not. This books is full of teenage angst that most people can relate to. From the feelings of being inadequate or not good enough and believing you have to act and look and certain way to fit in.

Nathan has a secret that he is trying so hard to keep so he can have a normal life. However when Holly stumbles upon his secret he needs to make sure she won’t tell another soul. So he sets out to become her friend. The more then get to know each other the more their friendship turns into romance.
But with all the lies Nathan had told will Holly believe that their romance is real or is this just another mask to hide Nathan’s secrets?
And what other obstacles will they need to overcome in order to give their relationship a chance?
