A terrific story! Unbelievable!

Great concept, excellent story. Did not expect the ending! I'm impressed by the writing, but I almost feel like there were two separate authors . Well done!

What Lies Inside

Unique mixture of stories around mental health. A who done it with a twist. A happy ending? All lies, all secrets.

WASTE OF TIME!! Bad grammar, choppy sentence structure, and rushed story line. Don't waste your time!!

[Carole Whitehurst]

Gave up after 20%

Yet another main character that is « damaged goods » and is determined to self destruct. The stereotype is getting old. A good main character can have a few flaws to make him/her interesting but needs redeeming qualities to be likeable.

The story might have been good but I can’t say, as I gave up 20% into the book.

Absolutely awful

The grammar was bad. Storyline dreadful. The way the story just raced at the end was like even the author had got bored with it. Very disappointing.

[Nell]

This was truly weird. Hated the ending. Worst proof reading ever!

[Michele Roosa]

Couldn't finish it

I couldn't even finish this one. Kept getting worse and worse. This was listed under mystery and without a doubt should have been science fiction. Stupid.

[Debra H. Wruble]

Scary stuff

Once I got past the typos and poor proofreading the story was very in. I didn't even see the twists at the end and I really enjoyed the imaginative characters.

L!ies

It was intriguing, mysterious, and definitely creepy. I'm not sure I understood the ending. I believe it was a good book, just not something I would normally read.
