The Thing About the Truth is one of those books that swing back and forth between the present and the past. Had I read it as an absurd text, I might have had greater appreciation for it but I doubt that was anywhere near Barnholdt’s intention.Stuck in the present, we glimpse Kelsey and Isaac in the ...

Cover Story:As Kelsey approached, Isaac held his arms open. She was walking slowly, slightly unsteady on her non-designer heels and swinging a (bought on consignment) Kate Spade purse in her left hand. A gentle breeze ruffled her long blonde hair – wait, wasn’t her hair brown? - around her shoulder...

I have been looking forward to reading this book for months, so you can imagine my frustration when it turned out to be a lot different than I expected. I'm usually a sucker for a pretty cover but this one is a little off putting, especially the look on the girl's face. Also, their hair color is al...

The Thing About The Truth is told from the perspectives of Isaac and Kelsey. It’s told before and after the incident (Face It Down Day) in both of their perspectives. It was pretty cool that there were four mini stories in one book. But the idea was typical and boring, nothing stood out. The charact...

“The thing about the truth” è l’ultima meraviglia della Barnholdt che come la Echols e la Glines, occupa un posto speciale nel mio cuore come sa chi mi segue da un po’.

My Rating: 3.0 Having read Two-Way Street and One Night That Changes Everything in the past and really loving them, I became a major fan of Lauren Barnholdt. However, lately all her newly published books are disappointing me and The Thing About the Truth is no exception. Let's talk about the amazing...

"The thing about the truth is that it always comes out, no matter what you do."Kelsey got kicked out of prep school. But she's not going to let one mistake ruin her whole life and she's willing to start up once again. Isaac has been kicked out of more schools than he can count and since his father i...

Originally posted at http://www.thebooklife.comI always enjoy reading Lauren Barnholdt's books. They are always sweet, funny, and just the right amount of angsty. They are basically the perfect contemp formula for me. I think The Thing About the Truth is one of my favorite's of her books. I liked t...
