LIAR
By Justine Larbalestier


Micah admits on the very first page that she is a Liar. She has lied about being born a boy, she has lied about her father being an arms dealer, and she had lied about not being romantically involved with fellow student Zach. That is until Zach mysteriously turns up dead and the police start to question Micah about her involvement in his murder. From this moment forward Micah swears to tell us (the reader) only the truth of what really happened and who she really is. In the end it is up to you to decide whether Micah is telling the truth or if she is a Liar. Make sure to read this along with your friends; you’ll want to discuss what is real and what are lies. Justine Larbalestier (Scott Westerfeld's wife) did an awesome job with this book; it's one of the best books I've read in a long time. Definitely check it out.
