Liar
I am not much of a reader, but this book, Liar, is very interesting and keeps me reading. The layout of the book is unique how it has titles to represent what it is going to talk about like when it says before, after, family history, school history, etc. I also like how the story is told from Micah’s point of view. Because it makes me feel like I am her and I can understand her thoughts more easily. I think that the time frame in this book is pretty much up to date. I like how at the beginning of the book Micah gives the reader a promise to the reader ensuring that she will tell the reader the truth. Micah seems to be a quiet and different type of girl. I like how she handles certain situations. For example, when she was with her classmates talking to the counselor and Brandon put the spotlight on her by telling everyone that she was Zach’s girlfriend, she didn’t let her nervousness show even though everyone was staring at her. I can relate to this scene because I think it’s a good thing to not show unpositive feelings to others in some situations. On another note, I think that Micah les so much to get attention from other people. I think lying brings excitement to her and somewhat gives her something to do. Overall I like the beginning of this book and I am looking forward to read more and more.
