If You Lie

De: Caleb Stephens

Narrado por: Shelley Reece

A buried past. A new-age cult. A floating prison with no way off.

Seven years ago, Olivia woke up in the trunk of a stranger’s car—and barely escaped with her life. She’s been looking over her shoulder ever since.

Now, Olivia is a true-crime podcaster on a mission to help other women avoid her fate. But years spent covering violence and crime have left her burned out. So when Olivia’s estranged sister Quinn invites her to reconnect on an exclusive cruise, she jumps at the chance for a break…only this trip won’t be the relaxing vacation she’s hoping for.

The ship is elegant, the meals are divine, and the people are friendly—maybe too friendly. But Quinn isn’t the sister Olivia remembers. And strange things are starting to happen that echo Olivia's past in unsettling ways.

When someone on the ship goes missing, Olivia realizes she’s playing a dangerous game of cat and mouse. Only this time, she might not survive.

Phenomenal thriller

This story is *chefs kiss*. I am obsessed with Olivia and her strength. The narrator did such an amazing job on this. Listened to her with Feeders and fell in love so I was stoked to see her do another one of Caleb Stephens books.
Highly recommend this thriller for anyone looking for a cult who gets people stuck on a yacht. It’s a high stakes cat and mouse thriller full of emotion and wtf moments.

Solid thriller

Fun thriller. Could easily see this being a great movie if someone wanted to adapt the script

entertaining nonstop action

so many twists and turns, sometimes the dial turned nonstop at 10 felt like too much, but everything worked

An Interesting Concept

This book opens in the middle of action and grabs you, and then becomes very adequate. It wasn't bad, but not memorable or exciting imo. Decent dialog and story development. I enjoyed the concept of a "whodunit" on the open sea.

The "plot twist" was somewhat predictable, especially if you're paying attention when one of the characters says the name of the book while in conversation. There was not much voice variation from the audiobook narrator. Overall, a good read.

I was given a credit for this audiobook in exchange for my honest review.

Awesome

Incredibly well written and narrated book. I really enjoyed listening to it. Looking forward to more from the author.

Loved the narrators voice!

Oh wow, that plot twist will stay with me forever! I absolutely loved how this story messed with my mind. Caleb Stephens had me questioning everything, and I was hooked the entire time. Hands down, a 5-star!

Must read

I enjoyed this book so much, the twist I wasn’t expecting and the story line that keep me reading and wanting more! Definitely recommend can’t wait to read more from this author.

Fun Boat Ride

Wow. Such a captivating boat ride. Cults are no joke for sure. Complete think this could have happened in real life. Yicks.

If You Lie

I absolutely loved, “The Girls in the Cabin” and had high hopes for this one also.
Although I didn’t love it as much as the previous book I read by Caleb, this was still a good read.
I love the cover, I think it’s beautiful.
I like the concept of the book but after reading this I’m wondering if maybe I’m not into cult type books?
I did think certain parts dragged on. Especially over explaining and focusing on certain characters for pages and pages. It for sure made the book slow down for me in certain areas.

Twisty and honestly a compelling plot

I immediately was drawn into this story. I didn’t guess the twist and I read so many thrillers I’m usually not blown away. This was a great story.
