ABOUT THE BOOK: On a cool October morning, Lauren Wilder is shaken when she comes close to striking Bo Laughlin with her car as he’s walking along the road’s edge. A young man well known in their small town of Hardys Walk, Texas, Bo seems fine, even if Lauren’s intuition says otherwise. Since the accident two years ago that left her brain in a fragile state, she can’t trust her own instincts—and neither can her family. Then Bo vanishes, and as the search for him ensues, the police question whether she’s responsible. Lauren is terrified, not of what she remembers but of what she doesn’t.
Unable to trust herself and unwilling to trust anyone else, Lauren begins her own investigation into the mystery of Bo’s disappearance. But the truth can prove to be as shocking as any lie, and as Lauren exposes each one, from her family, from her friends, she isn’t the only one who will face heart-stopping repercussions.

Sometimes you see a book a few times here and there and you can wait to read it. When the #FRC2015 and blog tour come along for CROOKED LITTLE LIES I wanted in! This book did not disappoint! It was one of those books that kept me guessing. Life is busy and sometimes books do not keep our interest, but CROOKED LITTLE LIES was NOT one of those books. I was kept interested, entertained and engaged. I had the book with me (At all times) so I could sneak in reading any chance I had. I was kept guessing the whole way. This is a fabulous Fall read, a great book for book club and just a flat out great story! 4.5 stars!
