Publisher's Summary

"Despite the challenges - an unreliable narrator, an intricate plot, a shifting timeline, and myriad characters - Stephanie Racine gives a flawless narration of this audiobook.... This intense thriller is made even better by her performance." (AudioFile Magazine)

From renowned journalist Alice Feeney comes a riveting new audiobook, Sometimes I Lie.

My name is Amber Reynolds. There are three things you should know about me:

  1. I'm in a coma.
  2. My husband doesn't love me anymore.
  3. Sometimes I lie.

Amber wakes up in a hospital. She can't move. She can't speak. She can't open her eyes. She can hear everyone around her, but they have no idea. Amber doesn't remember what happened, but she has a suspicion her husband had something to do with it.

Alternating between her paralyzed present, the week before her accident, and a series of childhood diaries from 20 years ago, this brilliant psychological thriller asks: Is something really a lie if you believe it's the truth?

What the critics say

"With tension comparable to Gone Girl and The Girl on the Train, plus the imaginative Now-Then-Before construction, Feeney unfolds just enough in each chapter to keep you page-turning for more, and her character development is excellent." (NJ.com)

"The creepy feeling at the back of your neck is 100 percent real." (People Magazine)

Quite enthralling

I kept going back and forth in my decision to purchase this novel, but am so glad I did. I had to listen to it twice because when it ended the first time my jaw stayed dropped from the ending. I was like “Woah. What?! Wait...But?? Wwwhhhaattt??!! No. But..huh?!” It was a twist for sure and I loved it! The second time listening to it made the story even better and O found myself questioning the very unreliable narrator even more. I will admit the beginning was a bit slow for my liking, but the phenomenal performance by Stephanie Racine kept me listening. This was my first time reading anything by Alice Feeney and I am excited to read her other works.

unreliable narrator to the extreme

an interesting confusing book - when I finished it the book it took me awhile to understand what I had read. I began to listen to it a second time then decided not to. interesting take on unreliable narration. a good performance.

Fascinating

#Audible1 - I loved this books wild ride. The reader is always questioning who's perspective is being told as clues are revealed. This is one book that I will enjoy reading again.

Another great read by Alice Feeney!

Really enjoyed this book. This author got me pulled in with her latest book Rock Paper Scissors. That one is a must read! Full of twists until the end. With shocking reveals. His and Hers as well. This one also. Same concept as others. Love her style of writing and how she keeps us guessing until the end! Can’t wait for her next book coming out this summer. Highly recommend.

So good!

Every single twist caught me completely by surprise. This is the kind of book that has you staying up late into the night to find out what happens next. I would definitely recommend it!

Perfect narration and suspenseful storyline

Stephanie Racine have an exceptional performance. I will specifically be searching for other books she narrated. I truly felt like I was hearing a different voice for every character. The story was great, some parts are predictable but other plot twists are great. The main character is weak which was annoying and not what I expected but otherwise an exceptional read and I recommend!

Amazing!!!

This is one of those books that you truly believe in your mind that you have it figured out... and then you don’t. So many twists. I literally had a few WTF just happened moments in my mind as I listened to this. Truly an amazing book.

A little slow at first, but picks up and doesn’t stop from there. Highly recommend.
