I received this free ebook from Netgalley & Crooked lane books in exchange for an honest review

So i read this book little over 24 hours ago, and i have been desperately trying to come up with a review since.. and I still have nothing.. taking this from another review "Lies She Told had me questioning my own sanity" I honestly could not have said it better myself. My head is so scattered after reading this book, I don't have any idea what to say about it, so stick with me here while i give it the best shot i have.. hopefully..
My first thoughts on the beginning chapters of this book: The story within a story concept is just annoying to me, It takes longer than it should to keep the two women you are reading about separate. After about 5 or 6 chapters i was actually contemplating giving up and leaving a "did not finish" review. BUT i went to good reads read some reviews everyone kept saying "it's annoying but stick with it", it gets better, there is a point to this", blah blah so i went back and stuck to it. It did get better!! My brain started to clue in how to tell the two apart, it started picking up and was quickly becoming a faster read, then i figured it all out (before Colleen died believe it or not) and it made perfect sense what was going on, why the story HAD to unfold the way it did. Honestly this story wouldn't have made sense any other way. So i give the author that, it was a GREAT execution... right up until the end.

*****IF you do not want anything given away before you read this book******
*****DO NOT CONTINUE THIS REVIEW******
(If you do not have this story figured out by part 3 read and reread the quote UNTIL you get it, because it gives it away right in the quote what the hell is going on. That's how i confirmed what i knew already)
The big GIANT twist - After Chris sits down on that beach and talks to Liza it's such an information overload that your brain can not handle it. It'll just fly out the window and take a vacation (mine still isn't back as you can tell by this review) I understand everything that happened, i get why it happened, but WHAT THE HELL?!?!
I have all the information I have all the puzzle pieces but i can not for the life of me put the pieces together, my mind is honestly just blown. This woman should be a loony bin, which is where i feel like i should be living after this book mind fu**** the hell outta me!
I am giving it 5 stars JUST BECAUSE the author was able to do that to me. I have no idea whether i honestly liked this book or not. Maybe i will let you know after my brain returns!
