About this audiobook
"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 twenty years ago, this brilliant psychological thriller audiobook asks: Is something really a lie if you believe it's the truth?
More praise for Sometimes I Lie:
"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

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5SO. MANY. MINDFUCKS!
It's just an amazing book, i really loved reading it.1 person found this helpful
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Honestly I thought it started kind of slow but oncce it got going it REALLY got going. I really thought I'd figured it out and then it just threw some more stuff at me.
The ending confused me just a bit, but it was brilliant all the same. Excellent story-telling.1 person found this helpful
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5It was slow- paced but kept me interested. Good twists and turns.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Another great book by Alice Feeney! While I really liked the book, I expected even more from it after reading "His & Hers." This one didn't draw me in as quickly and felt a bit stretched at some times. Nevertheless, it's a great book with lots of similar motifs as Feeney's other works
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5So many plot twists. You think you have it figured out but you don't. Loved it. Great narrator.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Lots of unexpected turns in this book! I really enjoyed listening, but I wasn't sure Ioved the book until about 3/4 through. So stick with it!
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Took me sometime to get hooked. But the last 3rd of the book. Holy crap! Super awesome.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5The moment you think you know is when the twists and turns begin.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Too sexually graphic but the plot twist was really spectacular! I almost started the book over again because it blew me away that much. Story moves along well. Interesting and descriptive narration of plot and main characters.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5book needs a prologue that explains a bit more about the three timeframes within the story, its a bit slow at first so it was kind of confusing. Overall a good read.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5This was so bizarre I am still sitting here trying to figure it out. What tha heck
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Just finished this book and I am glad I didn’t give up after couple chapters even though I was really considering it. It starts slow. You would think how much of mystery can a coma person offer. But the book is really three parallel stories that will get connected at the end. One is from Amber who is in coma but can hear what happens around her. Second, Amber in the past. Events leading to why she is in coma. Third is a diary of a girl who’s identity we find out only closer to the end to put all clues together.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I don't even know where to begin with this book. I thought I knew but I didn't. Then I thought I figured it out but I was way off. The ending, mind blown.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5My new favourite author! I'm addicted, only two books in.
