Sometimes I Lie by Alice Feeney

This debut novel by Alice Feeney was a great read. The story opens with the main character, Amber Reynolds, in the hospital and in a coma. She can hear and understand what's going on around her, but she literally has no idea how she got there or what had happened to her. She knows that she is in a coma, she knows that she is married and she knows that sometimes she lies. These are the only three things she knows for sure. The author skillfully weaves this tale between the present (Now), the immediate past (Then) and 25 years ago (Before.) The writer sets this story up in such a clever way and there were a few times where I had to set the book down and applaud her brilliance. Each of the three settings (Now, Then and Before) lay the groundwork to come up with an explanation as to what happened to Amber. It's a thrilling and twisty psychological thriller. I couldn't put it down. A spectacular debut novel!
