The Lie That Binds by Amy Argent – Review by Bethany Rollins
The Lie That Binds by Amy Argent
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
This is my first book by this author and I was hopeful for a little mystery and trying to discover the lie in the blurb we are given. The truth comes way too fast and then I got bored. The overall message to the YA audience this book was written for is a great one. The overall topic(no spoilers!) of the secret and lies of the main character is one that should be discussed more with our youth. I highly liked that this book gave a message and used a subject matter that I don’t read often enough about. However, the path to get to this message was exhausting to my brain. I felt I read the same inner dialogue of each character multiple times throughout the story and it led me to disengage. I’ve read so many great reviews about this author so I will be reading another story soon and hope I can fully appreciate what so many others are saying.
