Wow. What? Wow.
Wait, what?
Yeah. That’s my reaction to this book. It’s not about what you think it’s about. Or is it? The beauty of LIAR is that every single person who reads it will have a completely different interpretation of what’s going on and what is true and what’s not. Larbalestier created a piece that is artful in its storytelling. Micah is the ultimate untrustworthy narrator. Even though you know Micah is a liar, you want to believe she’s telling you the truth. Maybe she is. Maybe she’s not. This book takes you through so many twists and turns that you really want to believe in, but you’re not sure you can. And even though Micah is a HUGE liar, we still like her. She’s entertaining. She’s creative. She’s slightly conniving.
So if you haven’t read LIAR, go read it now. It’s unlike anything you’ve ever read before, I promise.
