Sometimes the prettiest Instagram feeds mask the darkest, and bloodiest, secrets.

Social media influencer Summer Cartwright leads a very charmed life: millions of followers, the hottest designer and vintage clothes at her fingertips, a newly minted book deal, the coolest friends, and, until recently, the hottest boyfriend at her über-elite prep school. Every moment of her life has been carefully planned and cultivated to complement her “imperfectly perfect” social media persona. She is truly #LivingHerBestLife.

But when Summer goes missing during her annual Halloween party and then an unscheduled post appears on her feed stating that she’ll be dead within the next five minutes, those closest to Summer know something isn’t quite right―or on-brand. Grace, Summer’s camera-shy best friend; Adam, Summer’s gamer ex-boyfriend; Laney, Summer’s moody camp roommate; and Cora, an influencer wannabe, all decide to investigate. And when they come upon Summer’s lifeless body, they soon realize that no filter is strong enough to mask the lies we tell ourselves.


Told in multiple POVs interspersed with social media posts and flashbacks, Live Your Best Lie has twists and turns that will keep readers turning the page and no one will be able to guess the ending.

 My Thoughts: I enjoy a good thriller - and this one is good. I like the multiple POVs. I like the social media posts. I like the flashbacks. I'm only halfway through it but I can't stop reading it. I need to know what happened. From the #toxic influencer's famous party to her famous death, secrets about to be spilled. Four people are named as suspects for the murder - and it looks like they all have motive. Plus, there's all dealing with their grief - each in a different way. I like that they team up to solve the murder - or at least has much as you can. There's no trust here. No real friendship. But there are some great one liners. This one reads like a movie - in the very best way. Head over to my Insta account to see my post there. 

I'm both excited to see what this debut author writes next AND to see where Melissa de la Cruz's publishing line goes.
