I was almost hoping the cashmere was going to be laced with some kind of toxin that would kill Tricia and her four brain cells just so something interesting could happen, but nah, homegirl just looooooOOOOves cashmere. exhibit B: showing of a real estate property that's not been cleaned or staged yet has food in store ... like that's not weird at all Narration notes ~ fine job, but wish I could've sped it up some more without it skipping. Her voice was a little slow and I really wish there were 2 different narrators or some distinction between characters. I'm wondering if I would've enjoyed it a tad more if I read it rather than listened. Finally, Tricia and Ethan are ready to buy their first home together. They’ve found a remote house with an extensive but disturbing history. The previous owner mysteriously vanished and is presumed to have been murdered.

Don’t let him manipulate you,” Ethan says. “He isn’t a good person. He killed [spoiler]. He killed one of the people closest to him. What kind of person does that?” Or the ludicrous twists that may have worked if this book had been written in third person, but in first person are utterly absurd? In a secret hideaway, she finds all these cassette tapes and all her patient's sessions. As she listens to them, she begins to piece together the big puzzle, revealing details that as a reader, you may start connecting and wondering. When she reaches the final cassette... truths are revealed. Where to start, where to start? Ok let's do the writing. I truly believe there are sixth graders who can write more compelling sentences. Here's an excerpt that nearly gave me an aneurysm: Another one of my pet peeves is the unreliable narrator that lies for funsies, which of course we have in this shitshow of a book. Surprise, Tricia actually has a history with the house even though the readers are led to believe she's shooketh. And she had been stalking Ethan beforehand. Now why did she lie about these things? No reason, just trying to force a twist where there isn't one.

A remote manor miles away from anywhere captivated newly-weds, Tricia and Ethan while on a househunting. The castle-like estate once belonged to a renowned psychiatrist Dr. Adrienne Hale who vanished years ago. What they will find inside the mysterious abode is far more than the dream house they are looking for. They end up at an old, gigantic manor, waiting for their realtor. But due to a blizzard she never shows. The the of them take shelter in the house.it turns out to be the house of missing Dr Adrienne Hall, bestselling author of “Anatomy of Fear”. Tricia already has a bad feeling about the house, something happened here. Then she stumbles across a secret room, filled of recordings of Adrienne’s sessions with her patients. That’s when the mystery unravels. I don’t know what Freida McFadden injects into her books seriously, but boy do you get hooked !! Her writing style is additive and I would recommend her books to anybody who finds themselves in a reading slump. They will drag out right out of it and have your full attention right until the very end.

exhibit A: wearing boots not suited for the weather; if this was all planned, the least she can do is come dressed for the occasionLastly, tell me how Tricia can get away with murdering nearly ten people that are all intimately known to her. So her grammy and fiance and besties all die and no one bats an eye? Even Detective Pikachu could make the connections. Cmon now. Never Lie" is a captivating story that centers on the lives of Tricia and Ethan, a couple deeply immersed in the honeymoon phase of their relationship, as they embark on the exciting journey of finding their ideal home. Their plans take an unexpected turn when they find themselves stranded in the midst of a relentless snowstorm, compelling them to seek refuge in the seemingly deserted home of Adrienne Hale, a psychologist who mysteriously vanished without a trace. It's dark-lite. Not exactly addictive. It's a psychological thriller by virtue of it being sensational. Popcorn thriller for sure.

Also, in this economy I can totally understand the urgency to close on a real estate property on a steal price and 100% get on board with living in a mcmansion in the middle of nowhere even if it's with dead corpses. We have Tricia and Ethan, recent newlyweds, on their journey to buy a house. They get to a showing a few hours away and get caught in the middle of a snowstorm so they decide to spend the night. They realize once inside, that the house belongs to no other than famous psychiatrist and writer who vanished without a trace four years ago. It truly is the definition of unputdownable. I'd have read it in one sitting had I not been working. And when the twist happened, I gasped, put my hands to my face and gave a bark of laughter. My fiance was concerned and confused lol.

I really enjoyed this book because my friends had raved about the author so much that they practically forced me to read it. The writing was straightforward and easy to follow, and the pacing was just right. What stood out the most was the plot's unpredictability. Unlike previous thrillers where I could often guess the twists early on, this book kept me guessing right up to the end. It was a refreshing change from the usual predictability I've encountered in the genre.The pace at which the story unfolds is perfectly balanced, keeping my interest piqued throughout. But fate intervenes with a massive snowstorm that strands them during the showing. They have no cell service, and with their realtor conveniently a no show, the couple realize they need to just settle in until a rescue can be made. Who knows…maybe that gives them extra time to learn more about the house and its previous owner. Anytime someone goes house shopping and set their eyes on the people-may-or-may-not-have-died-here-but-you-can-get-it-for-a-low-low-price-of-uhmm-say-your-eternal-soul it's a plot hole for sure. I’ve read (listened to) one other book by this author The Inmate and enjoyed it. Perhaps the next will play out better (for me). Very good book. There’s lots of murder. Made me glad I am not a therapist or psychologist, because you have the potential to see very unstable people.

Freida is a genius. A magician. A music conductor- juggling all the threads with such effortless ease until the wonderful crescendo. Tricia discovers tapes of sessions with "EJ", a psychopath and wine connoisseur with a "familiar" voice. Her husband is called Ethan, is a wine connoisseur, has a temper sometimes, has no known friends or family and, she notes, she doesn't know him very well at all 🙄I love Freida McFadden. I’ve read all her novels and liked them all. I have some favourites of course. I read many people saying online they thought they figured this one out early but they were wrong. There were some really obvious red herrings. Who is EJ? I think it was natural that we thought it is Ethan. But is it really Ethan? Not going to spoil this. It’s never that easy with Freida… this being said, I didn’t even try to figure the twist. It has no use anyway. I take the information as I am reading and just go with the flow. Freida is a comfort author. I can rely on being surprised anyway and getting a great story. For me, she can’t do wrong. Once again, she got me with the end, I would not have guessed it.
