The Last Time I Lied by Riley Sager

2.0

I really enjoyed 'Home before dark', so after finishing that, I jumped directly into 'Last time I lied'. I don't know what happened, over saturation or enlightenment.. but I did not enjoy this one. It dragged for a long time and what started as an interesting premise, ended up lost in too much back and forth, talking, accusing and some kinda unbelievable turns. No character was likeable, and it became a bit too annoying reading that portrayal of female characters. In times also overly dramatic in my eyes. The twist in the end was at least something happening, at this point I mainly finished it for the sake of finishing... but it was not surprising at all, because the explanation for the happenings before, made not a lot of sense. I really dreaded the main character towards the end.
For a, I think long while, probably my last Sager book.
