I'm not always a big fan of mystery books, where there's family secrets waiting to be uncovered. But this was really well written and it was an unusual story and it definitely kept me engaged right to the end. The story was a little different than I'd expected, and there were some twists and turns, and I really enjoyed it.

Thank you Quercus Books and Netgalley for this ARC.
Having read Victoria's first book I was really looking forward to this.
Good storyline and characters but I felt it was a little YA for me - hence the 3 stars

An ok read, but a little too "young adult/teenage" for me.

Told by Kat in duel timelines, the present day and in the past when a young girl is murdered at Turtle Lake, the story explores the impact of the young girl's death on the people around them. Three 13 year old girls go to the lake and only two of them return.

It started off really well, with the impact on Kat's family very clear, after the involvement of her sister, Issy, in the death of the girl, but soon become a bit stilted and I struggled to maintain interest. The ending was quite abrupt and I felt lots more could have been made of inappropriate behaviour by one of the adults involved in the girls' lives.

I was very annoyed when Kat made a comment regarding her move to England, along the lines of that that she would maintain spelling words in the American way, rather than the incorrect way the English spell them - umm... really?

2 ⭐️ Thanks to Netgalley, Victoria Selman and Quercus for an ARC in return for an honest review.

A taut and suspenseful thriller that will keep you guessing until the very end. Prepare for a wild ride!I’m

Full review to come on Goodreads and Amazon. Thank you to the publisher, author, and NetGalley for a review copy

A beautifully trilling story that intertwines manh intriguing themes. I thouroughly enjoyed this book and would definitely want to read more by this author

My favourite new writer. This is the second book I’ve read by her and just as good as Truly, Darkly, Deeply. Very clever. I’m now waiting on the next one. Love finding great new writer. This one is a real gem. Based on true crime loosely. I found the characters are relatable and worth investing in. The worst part? When I’d finished it. Left such an impression on me.

I love a book that involves missing people. I loved this book and knew I had to read it especially after reading her other book last year. I dont want to tell you too much so you can enjoy it as much as I did.

I really enjoyed the authors previous book Truely, Darkly, Deeply but unfortunately this book didn’t work for me. I found the pacing very slow and found myself lacking in being invested in the story. I read a lot of mystery/thrillers so I think this could be a case of it’s me not the book.

Will definitely be checking out what this author does in the future.

I just couldn't connect with this one. Nothing seemed to happen. The book meandered along with absolutely nothing. My thanks to netgalley and the publishers for giving me the opportunity to read this book in return for an honest review.

I went into this book thinking it was going to be a fast paced whodunit, but at the 35ish% mark, still nothing had happened. Just a whole lot of exploring the past. No relevant development and such.

I absolutely love a thriller; every who knows me knows this. As usual I devoured this within days and loved every moment!!

A very readable thriller exploring what might drive two young girls to murder their best friend. I don't think it quite reached its full potential but I enjoyed it enough to read the last 80% in one go.

All The Little Liars by Victoria Selman is a fascinating read about three young girls of thirteen that alls neck away to a party at Carlsbad’s Turtle Lake and only two girls return.
What happened and why would two teenage girls murder their friend and did they really murder Her or was someone else there at the time?
An interesting story merging the past and present and who did what and why, before the truth is finally told.
Highly recommended

Well, Victoria Selman is back and reminding us why she is so fantastic. All the Little Liars is completely addictive and unputdownable.

This is an unpredictable, rollercoaster read with so many twists that keep you guessing. It’s quite hard to write a review of this one without giving away any big spoilers- but I’m going to give it a go anyway.

Our narrator is the sister of missing girl. Selman has given the reader a dual timeline to help us get deeper into events that took place. This is the horrifying tale of three teenagers attending a party, but only two returning.

This book is brilliant. It has completely consumed me and been a book that I was unwilling and unable to put down. I have adored this from beginning to end. I started this with the intention of reading a couple of chapters and ended up devouring this in just one sitting.

Selman is a genius, she has a real talent for throwing the unexpected at the reader and keeping you guessing throughout. This is so well written that I feel as though I have been watching this play out in front of me.

This is perfectly paced. Selman has literally pulled the ground from under me on occasions and I’ve been left completely stunned. All The Little Liars is a definite must read. There is nothing negative I can say about this book because it is truly brilliant.

Selman is an author who gets better and better. This is phenomenal and Selman has reminded her readers how brilliant she is with this one. There is nothing negative I can say about this book.

Twenty years ago, three 13 year old girls sneak out to go to a party but only 2 of the girls return. They both confess to having murdered their friend but did they?

This is told from the point of view of one of the girls little sisters. From before the girl goes missing, whilst she is missing and then again, now - 20 years later.

I couldn't put this book down and it's very twisty. I was totally kept on my toes. All the characters are great and so true to life.

This was an intriguing book with so many twists and turns it was hard to keep up! The plot was revealed bit by bit in a dual timeline and it worked really well with the story. I loved how everything unfolded and I couldn’t stop reading because I needed to know what happened next. I struggled with the characters and that ultimately lessened my enjoyment of the book. However, it’s still worth a read and I’ll definitely be checking out more by the author in the future. Thank you to Netgalley, the author, and publisher for a chance to read and review this book.

I really enjoyed this book….a twisty true crime inspired psychological thriller which was a struggle to out down!
Fast paced and well written, I found the exploration of relationships and manipulation riveting and I liked that the chapters are short and there’s a good mix of different writing styles such as articles, news reports and diary entries keeping the reader interested.
I’ve not read Selman’s previous book yet but it’s now on my tbr list after reading this one.
Clearly a talented author of psychological thrillers which are right up my street!

My second book by Victoria Selman, and I found it just as good as Truly, Darkly, Deeply. I didn't mind the slower pace on this one as I feel the true crime "effect" makes it feel more real. Very well constructed characters in a gripping mystery I absolutely recommend.
Thanks to NetGalley, the editor and the author for the opportunity to access this copy.

So this book is based around multiple true crime stories, and the main one is evident. Three best friends go out together, only two return. This book is gripping and very well written. It's clear that research has been undertaken for this story. It's a mixture of before the incident, after the incident, and twenty years after. Mixed in with articles, and transcripts related to the story. This is the first book by this author and I was not disappointed - I would read more of her work. I really enjoyed this story.
