After the jaw-dropping that was We Were Liars I couldn’t shy away from Genuine Fraud. I read some reviews telling it wasn’t as good, but that didn’t push me away. It’s not just the fact that I was blown away by the ending of We Were Liars that made it one of my favourite books, in fact, E. Lockhart’s writing was another factor. So I was determined to read Genuine Fraud, but this time I knew nothing about it. Author: E. Lockhart Publisher: Delacorte Press Pages: 262 Genre: Mystery, Contemporary, Thriller Publication: 5th September 2017 Synopsis: Imogen is a runaway heiress, an orphan, a cook, and a cheat. And Jule is a fighter, a social chameleon, and an athlete. They share an intense relationship that hides lies, fears and secrets. Imogen and Jule. Jule and Imogen. Inseparable best friends. Two very different people and one of them is a genuine fraud. The story is told from Jule point of view and in reverse chronological order. It starts in Mexico, in June 2017, and begins to go back week after week. This is a unique and smart way to tell this story, and I think it was perfect to completely mislead the reader and keep you guessing at all times. Although the story became confusing. In the middle of all this reverse timing, there were throwbacks to the pasts while Jule was remembering to give more back story, but that only confused me even more. I never fully understood how Jule and Imogen’s relationship started, and there are other bits and pieces that I didn’t quite get. For sure is a book that you have to pay attention to the details and even then you will know nothing. Other than that, Genuine Fraud was a roller-coaster of revelations. Chapter after chapter something new, unsettling, surprising, and nerve-racking was going to happen. I kept on questioning everything I knew until that moment, yet I knew nothing. Be assured that what you are reading is the truth, it’s a luxury that you don’t have in this book. One moment I was so sure about something, and in the next chapter, my theory shatters to pieces. This is a mystery that I couldn’t predict. Not even a tiny bit! But all these twists throughout the book took a toll on the ending. When a book starts with secrets, mysteries, small revelations so soon in...
