A very entertaining and enjoyable read . Full of suspense with well developed characters. Nice and fast paced.

I really enjoyed this murder mystery; a fast paced and enjoyable read. Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for this advance copy.

Twenty years ago a group of uni friends made predictions about their futures, who would be doing what
With one one the group dead the rest of the group gather for a reunion where the predictions are read out - this opens a can of worm's where peoples honesty is called into question with some of the number doing anything to keep their lies intact....
My favorite books are reunion books so i got so much from this book with its cast of unpleasant characters, except Maggie!
A thoroughly entertaining read

The Last Truths We Told is a novel in the reunion genre as nine university friends gather for a reunion 20 years after meeting at Cambridge.
20 years ago they all made predictions about each others lives and they meet up to read these predictions after the death of Lily, one of their group.
The novel starts off well, I liked the character of Maggie and the reader is then introduced to the rest of the group, some highly unlikeable and others I had some empathy for. The first half of the novel is well paced, as the reader learns more about the characters histories, the relationships between them and we discover more about what happened to Lily. However I soon began to lose interest as the only really likeable character is Maggie and the plot became quite tedious and I felt trapped with a group of people I did not like. Overall this novel was well written but lacked originality for me.
Many thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for the opportunity to read and review this digital ARC.

Sometimes you really don't know the people you consider close to you as well as you think you do.
Two decades ago, a group of university friends made various predictions about how they would all end up - who was likely to achieve what, and who might become someone.
Now one of their number has gone missing, and at a reunion where the rest are present, it is beginning to sink in that everyone may not have been entirely honest about their part in what has taken place. The thing is, people will sometimes go to great lengths to protect their version of events...
This is a suspenseful and entertaining read. Worth checking out for those who enjoy the reunion thriller trope.

Not my usual genre, but this exciting suspenseful novel was too good to pass up! Definitely look forward to sharing my full thoughts and review very soon. Thank you!
