Finished reading Tell Me What Really Happened


 Hello Bookies,

Well I finished my audiobook and I'm kind of glad that I listened to this book over actually reading it. I don't think reading the book would have given the same affect. There are a few twists and turns in the book but that is probably because we are seeing all the different points of view of four different characters. This is like their police interviews. I feel like it is pretty realistic because depending on your personality determines how you handle the interview with the police. Anyway I don't know what I can really share about this book. They do find the missing girl but she is sadly deceased. Then you are listening to the interviews as they try to figure out what happened that led to the death of this girl. I won't say what happened because I want you to read the book and find out yourself. I give this book a three out of five stars. It was a good concept and interesting. But the downside to books like this is that you are pretty much missing a few elements of the story that make it interesting. 

So until next time...

Started reading Tell Me What Really Happened by Chelsea Sedoti

 

Hello Bookies,

Sorry that I've been away for a while. Something happened in my personal life that involved a lot of readjusting and feeling lost. Now I'm getting back to into reading. I still don't have the motivation to actually read a book, so I've been doing audiobooks lately. Also the book I'm reading right now is probably best as an audiobook anyway. This book I've heard about and it's been on my TBR for a while. A group of friends goes camping and one ends up missing. The format of this book is basically just the friends going though police interviews as the police try to figure out what happened to the missing girl. Each friend also has a different background/personality. We have the best friend who is the daughter of a cop. The boyfriend who is the main suspect and everyone keeps mentioning 'the accident'. We have the best friend's brother who is huge into conspiracy theories. Then we have the quiet girl that grew up on the wrong side of the tracks. That is all we have with this book. Then your job is to listen to each of their interviews which is broken up by the way to 'tie' in their stories together, then figure out what really happened to the missing girl. I'm about a quarter of the way through the book already and I'm now sure if I like it yet. I do like the concept of the story though. It's very different.

So until next time...
