This was one of my most anticipated books this year, and it didn't disappoint.

I immediately loved Beckett. She's prickly and she doesn't take anything at face value--seriously, not ever; she is the actual definition of "trust but verify" and I over-relate--and she is thrust into a completely impossible situation. She finds a dead baby, which is traumatic enough, but it's in her boyfriend's duffel bag. And, of course, it takes no time for everyone to assume that she's the baby's mom.

It's not surprising that the baby (soon dubbed Lullaby Doe by Twitter, because of course it was) becomes more of a symbol than a person who died about as soon as she was born. That was the hardest part to read for me, because very few people actually seemed to understand that Lullaby Doe was a person, even if only for a few seconds, and she wasn't part of any type of crusade. (I should also note that she was stillborn. Yes, her body was hidden, but it's not one of those things where someone gives birth at prom and kills the just-born baby.)

This book is so tense and it was impossible to stop reading. This will be one of my favorites this year. Highly recommended.

Every Single Lie by Rachel Vincent REVIEW

🌕🌕🌕🌕🌑

Thank you to Netgalley and the publishers for a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. All thoughts and opinions expressed in this review are my own. 

Wow... this was an emotional read from start to finish. We start off with our main character Beckett dealing with some pretty average teenage drama. She's had a breakup with her boyfriend and isn't taking it too well. It doesn't take long for all that to change when Beckett finds a dead baby in the school locker room. Soon her life starts to unravel as she learns of secrets that could hurt her in more ways than one. 

I am absolutely stunned by how wonderful this book was. It was fantastically written and well paced.  I hated to put it down. The ending was shocking and heartbreaking. Every Single Lie is an emotional read that covers substance abuse, addiction, teen pregnancy, death, and bullying. While the themes within this book are hard to read, it is an amazing piece of work that I recommend reading for anyone who likes hard hitting YA.

Happy pub day 🎉 Thank you to @netgalley and @blumsburyya for this eARC of Every Single Lie by @rachelkvincent

The story starts off pretty dark almost immediately with the main character, Beckett, finding a deceased newborn baby inside a gym bag in her school's locker room. No one knows who the parents are, and it's very small town. The novel goes on to just focus on the mystery of why the baby was in the locker room and who the mother is, but it also heavily focused on Beckett and her family as they're still recovering from the loss of her father.

This book is full of more mature and darker subjects with tons of secrets, lies and rumors. It did read a bit YA a lot of the time and I wasn't always a fan of Beckett and the way she behaved, but I liked seeing her flaws.

Every Single Lie was gripping and I only found myself skimming a few times. I was invested and determined to finish reading as fast as possible to find out who the baby's mother was and why the baby was abandoned. However, I did come to realize who she was and it was a bit nerve wracking when it grew more clear who the mother was and that the characters weren't putting it together, even just as a hypothetical possibility.

The writing style wasn't anything special but it wasn't too simple. The level of tension and mystery kept me intrigued and I flipped through the book daily quickly. I hope to read more by this author especially if she keeps these mystery elements and darker topics up!

If you want to read something about teenagers involved in more adult-like situations and topics, this could be good for you. It'd be an a good introduction to some mystery if you mostly stick to YA contemporaries.

This book had me angry and sad, the characters when through some horrible things and it'll be the type of book that will stick with you and make you think. A powerful read discussing pregnancy, addiction, mental illness, bullying, and grief.

⚠️Trigger warnings for unplanned pregnancy, substance abuse and addiction, bullying and cyber-bullying

3.5🌟 for me review taken from my Instagram @fortheloveofcrime

I have so much to say about this book but feel as though nothing will do it justice. This fast-paced and shocking contemporary YA book had me turning pages so fast I thought my fingers would fall off. Beckett feels as though no one is telling her the truth. Her boyfriend Jake is hiding text messages, her mother is hiding things from her and she's had a falling out with her best friend. All of this while dealing with the crippling death of losing her father only months before. She doesn't think things can get much worse until the day that she finds the body of a newborn in Jake's gym bag in the girl's locker room. The town is convinced the baby which is very much not hers and is hers and a national media campaign to bully her into admitting it and finding out the truth begins, Beckett's mom as one of the very small town's detectives is at the helm of the investigation.

This book has multiple trigger warnings including Child Abuse, Parent Death, Drug Abuse, Stillborn,

I hadn’t read anything by this author before, but I was super intrigued by the plot. The synopsis made it seem like it was mystery-thriller, but I what I got was something entirely different.

This focused not just on the mystery, but also on the familial relationship with the Bergen’s. They start off as being strained, but by the end they end up trying to mend their familial bond. It’s almost like the mystery aspect brought the family closer together; which was nice to see.

As for the mystery, it was super gripping and I found myself invested in the book. While I certainly expected the baby’s mother to be a family member, I didn’t think it was going to be them (not saying who ‘cause of spoilers). The writing was also a plus and helped keep the story moving.

I wasn’t the biggest fan of Beckett’s character. I found that everything she did made things worse (particularity in the beginning) and when she accuses Jake (her boyfriend) of cheating, she completely overreacts. She could’ve just talked to him instead.

Overall, this was a pretty good read and I hope to read more from this author in the future.

A YA book that starts with finding a dead baby in the locker room? Color me intrigued, and boy did I fly through this book once I started it. Every Single Lie by Rachel Vincent is the issues-novel you didn’t know you needed–all about addiction, suspicion, the terrors of social media, and ultimately, just a lot of heart.
Beckett Bergen is taking a mental health day after breaking up with her boyfriend, Jake,but when she remembers she has a French test, she heads to school for 7th period.Hiding out in the closed locker rooms–still covered in fresh paint–proves to be a bad idea though, because she ends up finding a school duffle bag with a dead baby inside–a small baby, freshly born. Within minutes, the police are on the scene, including Beckett’s own mother, one of the small Tennessee city’s two detectives on the force. But the problems start coming and they don’t stop coming–why is the baby lying in Beckett’s ex’s duffle bag? Who starts the anonymous Twitter account and spreads rumors about her being the baby’s mother? What happens when a paternity comes back to reveal something no one wants to think about?
This is a book all about rumors and secrets and how the secrets of the baby interact with the secrets Beckett has been trying to avoid since her father died seven months ago.It’s about what we do and don’t notice about those around us, the way suspicion can cloud our judgement, and the perils of social media and frankly, high school in general. I enjoyed this book–I read it in one day, one evening–but I didn’t feel the POWER of this book until I read the authors note, so I recommend you do that as soon as you finished the book,but not beforehand, cuz spoilers.
Beckett is a super likeable character in that she’s flawed, but you also know she didn’t do it, so that’s fine, right? You also see her make mistakes and assumptions but as a reader you understand why. I’m also kind of liking this new YA trend of the female protagonists not all being college-bound princesses of productivity (I mean, not that there’s anything wrong with that, that’s who I am LOL) but it reflects a more real-worldness. It’s not always the Homecoming Queen who becomes the center of the story, ya know?

Every Single Lie is a wild ride of a story filled with twists, turns, suspense, and lies of course, all surrounding a girl who has found a dead baby in the locker room of her high school.

All is well and normal for teenager Beckett Bergen before things begin to go sideways for this small-town girl. Her boyfriend, Jake, begins hiding text messages from her and suspects him of cheating. She discovers her late father actually lost his job, no one can seem to get the last word on her or her family, and better yet, she ends up finding a dead baby in the locker room of her high school; With the baby being inside of Jake’s gym bag. Just when Beckett thought things could get worse, word begins to spread about the baby, and everyone thinks that she is the mother. 

If I were to sum up this book in one word: Crazy. Absolutely crazy and filled with suspense, plot twists, and so many jaw dropping points to the progressing plot. This one was quite hard to stomach down at some points just because of how thought-provoking and heartbreaking some moments were. To me, this could very well fit in the genre of new adult as well since the topics go beyond anything a normal teenager should have to go through. This isn’t your stereotypical high school drama about a girl who encounters situations like being a wallflower or the jock of the school falling for her. This brings the topics of cyberbullying, teen pregnancy, drug abuse, and suicide into the light. After finding out this book was based on experiences that Rachel Vincent herself had encountered, I could not help but feel for her and shed a few tears.

Beckett is the first-person narrator of this book, and this was such a smart move to make on Vincent’s point because it gives a very clear perspective of what a victim of cyberbullying and losing a parent is like. At only sixteen years old, you can only imagine the hardships she has to endure throughout the duration of the novel. From dealing with being a suspected murderer of a child that is not even hers, to her boyfriend cheating, and her best friend, Amira, going MIA for suspicious reasons, this is just the beginning of the conflict that awaits her. She is the daughter of a single Mom, and her older brother, Penn, and her little sister, Landry seem to be hiding their own secrets as well.

Cyberbullying and drug addiction are also large topics discussed throughout the plot. The Crimson Cryer is the twitter account spreading the word about Lullaby Doe (the new nickname for the baby), and the messages and replies to the tweets are no pretty site, especially when Beckett is mentioned. Finding out her father had a drug addiction and may have died because of this is also very hard to digest. Despite knowing the truth of what really happened, this takes a toll on Beckett mentally and psychologically. However, she is able to develop into a more matured an adult version of herself by the book’s end, which always make for a fantastic protagonist.

To put it shortly, this novel was a joy to read! I have pondered and thought about how realistic this situation is for some teenagers in this digitally evolved world we now live in. The characters and the development they have undergone was the strongest aspect. The way the plot wrapped up was a bit predictable, but my jaw still dropped to the floor just a little bit at the very important (and large) plot reveal that seemingly pieced everything together. If you want to read something about teenagers involved in very adult-like situations and or reflect and better understand such triggering topics, this one is for you! This book is great for readers who want an introduction into the contemporary-mystery side of YA fiction, and I recommend it to anyone looking for something new to read within this subgenre!

This book was straight up unputdownable for me. From the minute I started, I knew I was hooked. The story gets dark almost immediately with the main character, Beckett, finding a deceased newborn baby in her school's locker room. I won't lie, it is tough to read. But the story was so compelling that I was able to handle it.

Obviously, the town is up in arms over the discovery. And many people point the finger immediately at Beckett herself. The author does a phenomenal job of illustrating how positively vile a social media ambush can be. Even if Beckett was the mother, the vitriol spewed at her from complete strangers (and perhaps worse, non-strangers) will break your heart.

Beckett must deal with this discovery and its aftermath while she is already struggling with some pretty heavy familial issues, boyfriend and friend issues, and just being a teen in general, and I certainly don't envy her. She also cannot seem to let the investigation go. She feels a sort of connection to the baby, since she found her, and vows to find the child's parents, and figure out what happened to her. It makes for a page turning mystery to add to the already incredibly emotive story.

Bottom Line: Part mystery, part heartbreaking commentary, part coming of age, Every Single Lie hooked me from the start and never let go.

I guess I've been on a mystery kick lately because I've really been enjoying the mysteries I'm reading.

The plot of this is interesting enough - dead newborn baby found in a duffel bag in a high school locker room. But it's honestly the added layers that were most captivating in this story. Of course, we want to know who the baby's mother is, but the more pressing issue is: how was someone pregnant and no one knew? I liked how it kept Beckett and her family guessing. Because when you don't know the answer to something like that, everyone becomes a suspect and you question past conversations and actions.

There's also a lot to be said for high school gossip and the fire it can start. All Beckett did was find a baby in a locker room and then she was vilified as a baby killer, because of course, it had to be her baby since she "found" it. We know from the beginning it isn't hers since the story is told in first person perspective so it's that much more enraging when these people in the community are spreading false rumors about a 16 year-old girl. I also liked the added perspective of Jake and Penn applying to college and them being scared of being acquainted with a story like this because it could impact their college acceptance. It's the truth. Social media is both good and bad for a great many things.

I especially liked the author's note at the end where she explained how this was such a personal story to her. It is NOT autobiographical or a memoir of any sort, but she did touch on how she remembered pregnancy/dead baby rumors from when she was in high school. I'm sure every high school has something similar. I definitely remember the pregnancy and abortion rumors. To this day, I can remember who they were about and I still wonder if they were true. Just goes to show that a story like this really can have an impact on someone's life decades later.

This book does have it flaws as some details require quite the stretch of the imagination, but I'm sticking with 4 stars because of how much it made me think and to question my own role in the high school rumor mill.

Every Single Lie is an absolutely captivating read. This story grips you from the first page and keeps hold the entire time. Rachel Vincent's writing in this novel is absolutely fantastic and completely gripping.

It starts off at a point that immediately hooks you into the story. The main character Beckett is already dealing with so much, having just lost her father, when this tragedy happens and she is sucked into this world of rumors, lies, and secrets. She is struggling as much trying to figure out the truth as everyone else is while the story unfolds.

I feel like so much that can be learned from this story. There are so many lessons, and real truths that come to light in Every Single Lie.

This book is absolutely gripping. It will have you confused, sad, angry at times, and heartbroken at others. You feel everything that Beckett does as she is navigating this nasty world of rumors and lies.

I absolutely loved this book. I devoured it in one whole night. I could not read fast enough. I was just as desperate for answers as Beckett was.

Like I said, Rachel Vincents writing in this book was fantastic. She managed to absolutely grip me from the first page, and as the story unfolds you just can't help but to keep flipping the pages in search for answers.

I absolutely think that Every Single Lie is a must read. The story deals with some raw, gritty, and sad things that are unfortunately, reality.

It deals with the sad truth that people will believe what they want to, regardless of the truth, and the harsh reality of what is said online can be brought into and affect people in real life. But also delves into the strengths of these characters and how they persevere and push through.

Every Single Lie should be a must read this year, and all the years to come. It a fantastically written, raw and gripping story.

Every Single Lie by Rachel Vincent is a contemporary young adult novel of sixteen year old Beckett Bergin and how finding a dead baby inside a duffel bag in her high school locker room turns her life upside down.
As the novel opens Beckett is trying to break into her boyfriend‘s car to prove he‘s cheating and is promptly caught by her mother’s co-worker from the police department. And her day is about to get a lot worse when she finds a dead baby in the school locker room. Internet rumors swirl around who the mother is and all eyes are focused on Beckett. This intense focus is the last thing the Bergen family needs as they try to hold everything together after the devastating loss of their father seven months prior. As the case gains national media attention and the police try to solve the mystery of “Baby Lullaby Doe“ Beckett learns a lot about herself, her family and the small town she lives in.
I really appreciated Rachel Vincent giving Beckett a sense of humor in the midst of all the sadness surrounding her. She didn’t have one of those obnoxious I’M A SASSY TEEN personalities with a quip for every situation but there was a certain dry wit to her that I enjoyed. She was also dogged in her pursuit of the truth which I admired considering how painful it was to go down certain roads of investigation.
I highly recommend Every Single Lie by Rachel Vincent for contemporary young adult fans that enjoy heavier topics.
* Thank you NetGalley and Bloomsbury Publishing for this review copy of Every Single Lie.

This was a poignant YA novel that deals with tough content and themes. The story was addicting and engrossing, and I could not put this book down. I loved all the reveals and twists and turns while reading.

I would definitely recommend this one for fans of books like One of Us Is Lying, and other mysteries of that sort. Vincent does well in her presentation of a scandalous small town mystery, including the requisite red herrings. I can think of a number of students who will love this once it hits my bookshelf.

When Beckett finds the body of a newborn baby in her high school locker room, the small town of Clifford, Tennessee quickly becomes the focus of nationwide media attention. Beckett finds herself the center of scrutiny on all sides, rumors that she’s the mother who decided to abandon her child spreading like wildfire through the town. It doesn’t help that the baby was found in her ex-boyfriend’s gym bag...

I have zero complaints about this book, except for the fact that it ended too quickly; I sped through it in one afternoon, I was hooked right away. The story begins IMMEDIATELY and every chapter brings with it a revelation of some kind. As a die-hard Rachel Vincent, this was always a must read on my list, but should be a must-read for all fans of any kind of YA fiction.

The characters are relatable. The narrative is wholly engrossing. And the story itself is unputdownable. The twists and turns were expertly executed, to the point that I thought I would have a plot point nailed down, only to be proven wrong, only to find out I was right in the end! But still such a shock!

Every Single Lie was unexpectedly emotional at times. The ease with which Vincent tackles a variety of tough subjects -- bullying, death, and drug abuse to name a few -- is remarkable. And heartbreaking. Definitely not a story for the faint of heart, but also one that I believe will relate to the innate empathy of all readers who pick it up.

Trigger warning: death, drug abuse/addiction, threats of violence, miscarriage/infant death.

I read this book in one sitting and that wasn't planned at all. This book just completely sucked me in and I couldn't stop reading. This ended up being more of a mystery than I expected as well and I didn't mind that. Towards the ending it did get a bit annoying because I had already figured it out and the characters weren't even seeing it as a possibility and I just kept yelling at my book. Besides that I also just really like the discussions this book gave. Not just on the topic of teen pregnancy, sex ed and community support (which are super big topics in this book) but also on cyberbullying and coming to terms with the fact that one of your parents isn't who you thought they were. It was all really well done and really well balanced. The main character was quite annoying because she was super hypocritcal and it would constantly be pointed out to her and she even acknowledges it herself in her inner monologue yet she does the same thing over and over again. That kept me from fully loving this book but I would still highly recommend this one.

5☆

Characters-
The main character Beckett was one of my favorite YA characters ever. She had the perfect balance of flaws and strengths unlike a lot of characters I see in YA contemporary. She felt very realistic and so did the relationships she had with those around her. Her friendships, romantic relationship and sibling relationships felt real and I could relate to them as a teenager myself. I really appreciated this about Every Single Lie.

Plot-
The premise of this book was very interesting to me which is why I requested the ARC in the first place. I've heard several stories of this happening in real life, but never read or heard of a fictional story where it was part of the plot. I also thought that the heavy nature of the premise was dealt with really well.

The grief aspect along with Beckett's father's recent passing was incredibly sad, and although I've never experienced anything like that, I know many kids have. Knowing people that have lost a parent and hearing them talk about it, some of the dialogue from the family in this novel felt very reminiscent of things I've heard in real life. I think the author wrote this aspect very respectfully and realistically.

When it came to the thriller part of the book, I absolutely loved the reveal. It was realistic and surprising yet there were enough hints that made it not seem like it came from nowhere. I actually was crying throughout the couple of chapters where things are explained because it was so emotional.

Writing-
I enjoyed the writing style because it wasn't too complex nor was it too simple. There was a good in between that I love for YA contemporary novels.


Overall, I absolutely adored this book, and it is now one of my favorite books of 2020. I have nothing negative to say about it, but I would definitely check out what some trigger warnings could be if you need them.

Beckett's entire world implodes when she finds a baby inside a gym bag in the school bathroom. Having just broke up with her boyfriend, Jake not even 24 hours ago, she was already in a bad head space. But, upon finding this baby, he life goes from bad to worse.

She is thrown into the spotlight when the town assumes that because she found the baby, she obviously had to be the mother and these people are not kind to her. Over the next week, she is bombarded with hate and death threats. A Twitter account has popped up from an unknown source and they are gaining a lot of attention by claiming she is the mother. They also have inside information they keep doling out, causing more problems for Beckett.

Her mom is a detective in town and the lead investigator on this case. But, her mom is spread so thin as it is. Beckett's veteran father died earlier that year and her mom is still not doing well with it. She is practically married to her job now, leaving Beckett, her older brother Penn and their 13 year old sister, Landry to take care of each other most of the time.

Now, along with her mother, Beckett is on the hunt to find out who the mother of this baby is. It becomes more than just clearing her name. She is completely invested. But, the hate she gets is devastating. Reporters are hounding her, and she is just mortified. This story was told so well. I was on the edge of my seat waiting for the big reveal. My heart broke for Beckett. She learns some unhappy truths about the events leading up to her father's death. Her ex is trying so hard to convince her that he didn't cheat on her like she thinks he did (causing their split). And her mom is spending her nights drinking wine and going through her father's things. It was all just so sad. And then adding the whole baby aspect was very suspenseful. Beckett is torn between feeling sorry for the unknown mother and being furious with her for leaving her baby in the trash.

The real deal issues that this book spotlights are substance abuse and addiction, unplanned teenage pregnancy, and bullying.

I received this ARC from the publisher in exchange for an honest and voluntary review. I was in no way compensated for this review.

I was eager to pick up Rachel Vincent’s foray into the mystery genre with Every Single Lie! You’re probably surprised I picked up something that sounds so contemporary, I was a bit surprised myself because I had the feeling that the mystery wasn’t going to be as center-focused as I would hope, and though it was, it also wasn’t. It still made for an intriguing and deeply moving read.

Beckett is convinced that her boyfriend is cheating on her, so when she goes to break into his car before the end of school day to find proof, she gets and wanting to avoid a further confrontation with him she escapes into the girl’s locker room before the final period. It’s there that she uncovers something horrific, it’s the body of stillborn infant. Someone had left the body in the locker room.

The investigation gets underway, and since she found the baby she has to give her statement and it just happens to be her mother who is the lead detective in their little Tennessee town. It’s not long before whispers start spreading that speculate that Beckett could be the mother which couldn’t be further from the truth. It doesn’t help that a Twitter troll takes to the scene and starts a campaign against Beckett or the “so-called” mother who abandoned her newborn baby in a high school locker room.

While I wouldn’t call Beckett a detective herself, she does ask questions. Especially since everyone is pointing their finger at her as the callous mother who abandoned her baby. She kind of jumps to conclusions from time to time but the evidence that’s presented is pretty revealing. Though I honestly started to make my own suspicions about things early on, and I was astounded to find out I was right!

This book was a little scary to read at times. Not in the horror sense, but in its reality. What young teens might face in certain situations, the horror of rumors and social media. It’s all pretty scary because media doesn’t always care about the truth, they just want a juicy story.

Looking back on this, I am a bit dismayed that the mystery wasn’t as centrally focused as I had thought. I wouldn’t call it a thriller really. There’s no murder, there’s a death of an infant, but no proof of murder from the getgo. And when you look at the circumstances of the situation you can foresee where things are headed.

As I said, this read more contemporary like than the mystery I had been hoping for but since it was Rachel Vincent I kept at it! The conclusion was about as expected. It’s something that still kind of rattles me even after finishing it. Again, because of how realistic it felt. This is also why I don’t read contemporaries. I don’t need that reminder of reality. Though it was masterfully executed, it really wasn’t to my liking, genre-wise.

If you’re a fan of cotemporaries with challenging topics and a dash of mystery steep in the rumor-mill I would highly recommend Every Single Lie! Rachel has always had a way with words, it’s why she’s one of my favorite authors and even though this really wasn’t my kind of read, I will say that it was impeccable storytelling that was well-paced and had me turning the pages as fast as I could to see if my predictions were right!

Overall Rating 4/5 stars

Every Single Lie releases January 12, 2021

Thanks to the publisher for providing an eARC of Every Single Lie in exchange for an honest review.

Upon opening Every Single Lie, I was less than enthused. This is unknowingly my second book by the author and when I was reading the author praises at the beginning and realized she was also behind 100 Hours (a book I gave 1 star) I was worried that I'd accidently agreed to read and review a book I already knew I wouldn't hate. Every Single Lie comes out about 4 years after my last foray with Vincent's writing and the way she's progressed as an author is absolutely stunning.

The narration is tight, genuine, and keeps you hooked from beginning to end. Vincent layers several possible answers to this book's central mystery in while also managing to provide a strong enough foundation for the reveal that you don't feel blind-sighted by it. My only real complaint is that this book moves very quickly and while that worked really, really well with this book as a symbol for a taboo subject rarely talked about, it doesn't lend well to this being a character heavy piece. Again, I was fine with that but the chapter before the epilogue decides to focus heavily on the MCs relationship with another character and it felt odd, derailing, and unnecessary. Some of the relationship (of various natures) portions of this felt more like it was trying to fulfill YA necessities that this book just didn't need.

Oh, man, wow, this book was utterly fantastic! I've really enjoyed Rachel Vincent's books before, and I just wanted to dive right into this one! It was such an amazing read, I had a great time, I was on the figurative edge of my seat, and I just couldn't put this book down until it ended!

I really enjoyed reading about Beckett and her story. From her boyfriend keeping secrets to the events leading up to her father's death, and of course, finding a dead baby, she has a lot going on in her life. I loved her habit of putting statements through a truth test, it was a fun part of her narration. Really enjoyed how this book had her questioning what she knew about her friends, family, and the community that she lives in, that nobody noticed a probably young pregnant lady.

A great deal of this book is about online hate. These people aren't connected to the situation, they don't know Beckett or the small town that she lives in. But a baby was found abandoned and dead in a school change room, and the internet decided that Beckett was the mother. Even though there's no proof.

It's like the internet needs a lesson in a) not jumping to conclusions and patience for the truth and/or evidence to come out, b) kindness to strangers. And a dash of, if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all. Maybe say, this isn't a good situation, but we don't know all the factors, so don't jump down anybody in particular's throat.

There were a few periods where the focus of suspicion of who the parents where changed. There were a few contenders that popped up. And this is a mystery book, of who the parents are, and what happened with Lullaby Doe was born. That reveal of what really happened? I didn't see it coming but the foundation was there, and I loved it!

Loved reading this book, it was just phenomenal, and I hope that everybody loves it even half as much as I do when it comes out!
