Description
Lily Armstrong strives to be a better woman.
Growing up in the shadow of an immoral mother - one who believes there are no rules in marriage or life that apply to her. Thankfully Lily has a devoted father, Ben, who loves and adores her up until his sudden death, leaving Lily the sole caregiver for her ill mother, Daisy.
The latest family tragedies have forced Lily to question the history her parents claimed to be true. With the discovery of disturbing diaries kept by her mother, Lily will uncover dark twists that her curiosity will not let stay buried in the past. Lily has always struggled to understand what made her mother so callous and unloving.
Within the contents of the secret diaries, the sinister truth will finally come to light.

🌼 the character development in the book through both the ongoing events and Daisy’s past diary entries is wonderful! I started out hating Daisy and what she was doing to Lily but by the end, my feelings changed. I still don’t know my thoughts on Lily, though. Sometimes I felt bad for her, and then other times she annoyed me.
🌼 while a bit slow, the beginning really gives us a good look into who each character is, which I loved, and that definitely helped build the story up and add to the character development
🌼 I did not expect the twistiness in the end after a somewhat mild first half!
🌼 but seriously, the ending is PHENOMENAL! Everything just comes together so perfectly! There were some things I wasn’t sure I would get an answer to, but within those last few pages, everything is tied up without any loose ends!

""He Loves Me, She Loves Me Not"" isn't really my typical type of book but what's the fun in only reading one style of book? And guess what? I loved it ☺ it was emotional, it was believable, it felt like a REAL tale.
It tells the story of a family, from the perspective of the daughter Lily. Her father Ben is her hero but her mother Daisy has always been lacking maternal qualities... and her morals? Also lacking. When Lily is a teenage, her life is flipped upside down over the course of a few months and she finds herself desperate to unlock the secrets that have been holding her family together for years.
There were a few heavy, dark twists and it was absolutely absorbing!

What a captivating read! This book is women’s fiction at it’s best! Betrayal, fragile relationships, family and memories are just some of the themes in this disturbing nostalgic tale."
