The Best Lies Are the Ones Closest To The Truth

Look Closer Book Review

Synopsis via Goodreads:

Simon and Vicky couldn’t seem more like a wealthy Chicago couple with a stable, if unexciting, marriage. But with these two… absolutely nothing is what it seems. When a beautiful socialite is found hanging in a mansion in a nearby suburb, Simon and Vicky’s complex web of secrets begins to unravel. A whirlwind affair. A twenty-million-dollar trust fund is about to come due. A decades-long grudge and an obsession with revenge. Both Vicky and Simon are liars — but just who exactly is conning who?

Book Review

We don’t normally side with the one who committed the crime but it’s different in this story. I grew fond of the two important characters while reading all 105 chapters. Look Closer is longer than the usual books I already read but didn’t drag me as I reached the end.

It’s brilliantly written. It was gripping and page-turning. It’s stuffed with so many twists I never saw coming. I was drawn to all the characters and felt they were all real. I loved the ending and enjoyed the entire book. My new favorite thriller!
