I’ll Never Tell is an enjoyable mystery with some very unreliable narrators and a great twist at the end. I especially loved that Amanda got to tell her story, too.

Cathherine McKenzie's newest reminds one that she is a master at suspense. And twists. I'll Never Tell kept me guessing right up until the end. Excellent and highly recommended

Secrets and more secrets. A family full of secrets. Another great mystery to unravel by CM. Interesting plot twist at the end. Thanks to the author and publisher for the ARC of this great read.

This book grabs you from the beginning and doesn't let go until the very end. So many twists and turns keeps you guessing! Just when you think you have it figured out another twist! The characters are complex with a ton of secrets and the setting was amazing- you can smell the trees! I thoroughly enjoyed this book and Catherine McKenzie has written another amazing book!!! I received an advanced readers copy from NetGalley and Lake Union Publishing. All opinions are my own.

Whoa! Stayed up wayyyyyyy past my bedtime last night because I had to finish this! For real though- I’m usually in bed by 10:30pm because otherwise I’ll be super crabby AND it was almost 1am when I finally closed my paperwhite.

I had my guesses, but NOPE! Not only was I wrong on that front, but then that ending. Did NOT see that coming!

I'll Never Tell is a story about the five MacCallister siblings who grew up at the family's Camp McCaw and the 20 year old mystery of who killed Amanda Holmes. The story had me turning pages late into the night as I tried to figure out the mystery. I thought I had it figured our until I reached the OMG ending. The story is told from different points of view including Amanda's. It also goes back and forth in time. The story was well written and the characters interesting. I highly recommend this book. Thank you Catherine McKenzie, Netalley, and the publisher for an ARC of this book and this is my honest review.

What Book Are You Reading? I'll never tell. (Ok, so that was a fun joke. The first couple... thousand... times I used it when people were asking me what I was reading.) But seriously, this is an awesome book. McKenzie does an excellent job here of keeping the reader guessing until the final reveal within the last 10% of the book, and even includes an unexpected bonus surprise closer to 2/3 in. Great job of keeping the tale moving through multiple characters' perspectives, and fantastic story overall.

If you like twist and turn suspense, you’ll love this novel. Catherine McKenzie, develops strong, complicated characters and in this case, just about everyone has a secret or is suspicious of a sibling.
Although growing up close in their large family, a tragedy 20 years ago, left the family fractured and distant. After their parents die in an accident, they come together for the memorial and reading of the will, and it’s terms cause more suspicion and turmoil.
It’s a page turner and you won’t guess the ending. My thanks to the author, Lake Union Publishing and Net Galley for the ARC.

The suspense is riveting on each page of this novel as each one of the MacCallister children come home to the reading of their parents will and find them struggling and plotting to know who will be the one to preserve the family owned land and camp. They learn they have to first solve the mystery of who murdered their dear old friend Amanda whose body was found in a rowboat washed ashore. Each one, Ryan, Kate, Liddie, Margo and Mary could be suspect and have their own shocking secrets they have held onto for years. Jealousy and greed play back and forth and suspicions rise as events bring them closer to the truth of what happened one night. Was it Ryan the oldest who wants to sell and make money, or was it the groundskeeper who has been there all along? Or was it one of the twins who had tales to tell... I was constantly going back and forth and just when I thought I had it figured out the shocking ending came and I was so surprised I think I gasped. This book will keep you up till the late hours, it is truly another amazing book by Catherine Mackenzie, it just might be her best yet. I loved it!

Catherine McKenzie has a suspense filled....page turning....dark secrets book with a deeply flawed family of characters that I just had to figure out. If that's possible! Each character has their quirks and hidden secrets upon hidden secrets that, as siblings and camp workers, they had no clue what each other was hiding. As secrets start being exposed, the doubts and suspicions start escalating. It seems even the deceased father was suspect. "There was always drama when the MacAllisters were around." The story has the question of "happened to Amanda in 1998"? Who was with her last? Who is responsible? Who isn't telling the truth and who is? Who saw what?
The story concept of each chapter is from the POV of a different character. I liked, also, that there were chapters from Amanda's POV in 1998 and the events that led to what happened that night. I would think I had this mystery solved and had my suspicions of who did what...just to have it blown out of the water in the next chapter. I had to keep turning the pages, keep reading, and keep pondering how they kept things hidden from each other like they did. I was totally shocked by the ending!
I enjoyed this book so very much and want to thank Lake Union, Netgalley and Ms. McKenzie for the ARC of this book. Totally a 5 star read for me!

Another fabulous book from Catherine McKenzie! It's a page turner and unputdownable! The way the author weaves the story around sibling emotions and quirks is fantastic. The characters are intense, quirky, interesting and fabulously questionable. I felt as if I was in the story and I had to force myself to slow down. If you liked The Good Liar you will love I'll Never Tell. A thoroughly enjoyable read that keeps you guessing until the last page. Bravo! 5 stars.

I was always told "What happens at camp, stays at camp". How true!
This is an incredible suspense, mystery and family story.
It takes place at a camp, where a memorial service and the reading of the will are planned for the two people who owned and loved this beautiful refuge. Their five children all grew up in this environment and will attend.
There will be friends and of course the "lifers" who loved the camp summers and want to rejuvenate the memories of their younger days.
But... This book is OH so much more!
There was a terrible crime twenty years ago, that still needs to be solved.
The twists and turns forced me to read well in to the nights.
Each character is keeping secrets, slowing being revealed as the story unfolds.
I had no idea who was responsible for this mystery until the last chapter.
Anyone who has worked at a camp or has been a camper, will find this is spot on!
My own memories of working, swimming in the cold lake and the scents of the woods, dining room, and art room all came flooding back!
Excellent!

I was so excited to get an advance copy from Catherine McKenzie as she is one of my favorite authors and I can happily report that I'll Never Tell did not disappoint. A classic whodunnit told from different perspectives and in different decades, it kept me guessing the whole time I was reading it. Loved this one!

Thank you to the author and publisher for giving me the privilege of reading an ARC of this book.

I am a big fan of Catherine McKenzie and this book does not disappoint.

I enjoyed the setting at the summer camp and how the siblings were so different. Their parents brought them together under odd circumstances and it gave us a mystery to solve. Each time I thought that I had it figured out, I was wrong!

I don't know how she keeps coming up with these crazy ideas but I'll keep reading!

Catherine McKenzie does it again!!! The Good Liar wowed me earlier this year and I’ve really been looking forward to I’ll Never Tell and it did not let me down! Family drama set amidst a crime years before at a sleepaway camp - the premise alone sold me, having attended a sleepaway camp for seven years myself. Told in alternating perspectives that will have you questioning anyone and everyone, this book is a fun, suspenseful ride from start to finish! Capped off with another excellent ending, I highly recommend you grab this one in 2019!

Catherine McKenzie never disappoints! Clear your scheduled because you will not be able to put this down!
"I'll Never Tell" is a gripping tale that follows the MacAllister family on a quest to bring closure to an unsolved murder of Amanda Holmes that happened 20 years ago at the MacAllister' family's Camp Macaw. The intense level of secrets revealed and the answer to who killed Amanda will have you guessing throughout and completely surprise you. A mix of exquisite character development and the intricately detailed setting of the camp drops you in the scene surrounded by cool water, tall trees and secrets lurking throughout. Catherine McKenzie is at her best and I will be anxiously awaiting her next book. Thank you to NetGalley, the publisher and author for an ARC of this novel. All thoughts and opinions are mine.

I'll Never Tell by Catherine McKenzie is an interesting, twisty story with a plot that drew me in quickly, as I've come to expect from her books.

I was surprised by the ending and at the many secrets that were divulged as I read. This was a good examination of family life, sibling rivalries and the way someone that's done some pretty terrible things can still manage to hide in plain sight. Just another normal person like the rest of us, except they aren't.

While the story was very good and I enjoyed the secrets and seeing how and why something happened to Amanda, I will say that most of the characters were hard for me to like or care for. I'm not sure why, but it didn't affect my enjoyment of the book in the way that unlikable characters usually do. Maybe it was me, who knows?

I'd definitely recommend this story for anyone that enjoys mystery, suspense and/or family drama. It will keep you turning pages long into the night.

Thanks to the author, the publisher and Netgalley for approving my request for an ARC. My thoughts are my own.

Thank you to the author and publisher for allowing me to read an ARC of this novel. I thought I had it all figured out, but I was wrong ! I love that ! What a great book ! So many secrets, such a messed up family and it all comes back to a summer camp. Some secrets just can't stay buried ! Quite the big twist at the end ! Huge fan of Catherine McKenzie and her books ! She tells a story like no one else and the end is always a complete surprise !

Amazing book! Loads of twists and turns. A definite read again book!
I highly recommend. Thanks to Netgalley for the ARC.

Wow! What a great book. This one has twists and turns at every chapter. Just when I thought I knew what I knew, it turns out I knew nothing ! I couldn’t put this book down, reading into the night !

20 years ago, something or someone hurt Amanda !

Each member of the MacAllister family has their own interpretation of what may or may not have happened !

This book is written from each persons point of view and goes back and forth in time, I loved the writing and the personalities of each family member ! A definite must read!
