Blurb:
When Klara was a child her mother vanished from her life.
All she has left is a handful of stories, passed down from the father who
raised her. Klara believes she has long ago come to terms with her mother’s
disappearance, but then she receives a note and a key from someone who call
themselves ‘N.R’. These lead her to a store room, full of the remnants of her
mother’s past, Klara discovers a woman who doesn’t quite match the portrait her
father had painstakingly painted for her, and a story that leads her to
question everything – and everyone – she thought she knew…
My thoughts:
I got his book at the GLAMOUR book club event I’ve told you
about and I was over the moon when Jessica Ruston signed my copy. I couldn’t
wait to start reading.
This beautiful book will take you on a rollercoaster of
emotions!
It all starts with the letter and key Klara receives in the
mail. She doesn’t know who N.R. is and she’s certainly didn’t know that there
is a store room full of her mother’s belongings. The content of the store room
and all the unanswered questions - new and old - send Klara on a journey she
will never forget as she discovers who Sadie really was.
I’ve loved this book from the start! The characters are fascinating
and so is each of their stories. Even when I wasn’t reading I was trying to
figure out what would happen next, and most importantly, what happened to Klara’s
mother? Why is her father lying? What kind of life did Sadie lead? And why had
she disappeared?
The Lies You Told Me is a must-read! It’s a trip down memory lane you won’t forget
that easily.
