Riley Redgate
I received a free reviewers edition copy from NetGalley. Thank you to Riley Redgate and ABRAMS kids publishing.
The seven ways we lie is an interesting take on a high school multi POV novel, with each of the characters representing one of the seven deadly sins. This book follows seven different characters, all who go to the same high school, and all who have different problems and developments.
I enjoyed this book, but it wasn't amazing. The book didn't focus on the seven deadly sins as much as I would have liked, and it was hard to tell which character represented which sin. I personally am really interested in the seven deadly sins, so this was a bit of a letdown. Aside from that, the book is a great teen novel, and presents many different teenage problems, so everyone can find something to relate to in this book. One grammatical error this book has is that there are no seperate paragraphs or even quotations for most of the dialogue, so it gets very confusing trying to figure out who is talking. This error might be because the version I read is probably not a finalized version, but it bugged me so much I thought it was worth nothing. Overall I gave this book 3 out of 5 stars. It was good, but had some flaws.
Thank you for reading another one of my reviews, I will be sure to come back with lots more in 2016. Thanks for a great six months and Happy New Year!!
