Description

They said they killed her. But they didn't - you did.

I should never have gone to her house. But I was desperate to ask her some questions about that night. About what she saw when Joe fell from the bridge.

All I wanted was some honesty, for someone else to have seen what I saw.

I never meant to hurt her. To push her.

As she lay at the bottom of the stairs, blood pooling around her head, I knew it was the end for me too.

I kept expecting the knock on the door, the police, the handcuffs. But it never came.

On the news, they are reporting someone has come forward and confessed to her murder.

But that can't be true. Because her killer is me...

A totally addictive psychological thriller with a killer twist you just won't see coming. Fans of Alice Feeney, Netflix's You and B A Paris will be hooked from the very first page.

Thanks to #NetGalley and #EmblaBooks for the ARC #TheConfession by #CharlotteBigland. This is a book about who-dun-it and revenge. First time author for me.

Oh I love this one. It is so murdery in a weird way!
Our girl's baby brother has died in a terribly sad way and she has decided to confront his bullies/murderers/and the town internet jerk (oh I LOVED that one).
She is not making good choices but luck seems to be on her side. I feel for our murderer because I too love my brother who was not treated well by the world.
Actually this book made me appreciate my brother more.

And I was laughing really hard at a lot of this. Making me laugh in a murdery book is a talent and more people need to develop the skill.
And the ending is gold!
I love this!

Secrets, Lies, Misdirection..
It starts with a killing but what is the real truth behind the confession to a murder? Secrets. lies and misdirection galore in this entertaining and engaging psychological suspense with a wholly unreliable narrator and a slow burn narrative that gives rise to unexpected twists and turns. Tension is nicely broken with threads of dark humour and a well crafted cast of characters populates a tumultuous plot which may well appeal to a YA audience.

This is a fab read, full of twists and turns, I was blwon away at times! I was drawn in from the first page and raced through it, never knowing what to expect!

The Confession

I cant even tell you what I thought I was going to read compared to what I actually did read but I can tell you, this book is one that I will never be able to stop talking about and it deserves every bit of the hype it is about to get..

Here we go...

The Confession, had me addicted to each turn of the page. I was squealing in delight as each secret was revealed . I was completely consumed and transported straight into the book. The characters came alive before my eyes and I felt every emotion they felt. The narration was executed with perfection and the plot twist was not only incredible but believable too! When everything came together I was left in sheer disbelief with my jaw on the floor.
