The Lies that Bind by Emily Giffin

WOW! Immediately had to discuss this book with a friend the minute I finished it. And needed a few days to process before posting my thoughts on it. It’s been YEARS since I can’t put down a book, and probably longer since I fly through one in 3 days! THREE. DAYS! I was up til 4-5 a.m. reading every night. I don’t have enough great things to say about this one—it’s about learning who you are, it’s a love story, it’s mystery, it’s historical fiction, it’s about friendship, and growing up… it’s simply amazing! If you need a beach read, a poolside read, heck—just a FAB READ— go get this STAT!

The Lies that Bind tells the story of 9-11, the moments leading up to it from the viewpoint of a young journalist starting out in the city. It captures the emotions that ran wild in the days and weeks that followed. A true emotional rollercoaster as you relive those historic moments.

But, there’s also a beautiful love story as Cecily follows her heart over her head. But as her love interest disappears in the chaos of the days following 9-11 Cecily goes on a quest to find out what happened to him. The secrets she uncovers during her research will leave her with more questions than answers.
