I was completely taken in by Never Lie by Freida McFadden. Just when I thought I had the ending figured out, the story took a turn I didn’t see coming. Freida’s skillful writing kept me guessing and engaged throughout. Her ability to craft such unpredictable twists is truly impressive.
"How are you? The three most useless words in the universe of communication. Nobody who asks that question wants to know the answer. And nobody who answers ever tells the truth."

My Favourite Quotes from Never Lie
- How are you? The three most useless words in the universe of communication. Nobody who asks that question wants to know the answer. And nobody who answers ever tells the truth.
- Liars fidget. The tone of their voice or speech patterns changes. Liars offer too much information, babbling on with excessive detail to convince themselves or others of what they are saying.
- Apparently, asking him to commit murder was a deal breaker.
