About this deal

Maybe I’m a liar too. I chose this career because I wanted to tell the truth. I wanted to tell the stories that mattered most, the ones that I thought people needed to hear. Stories that I hoped might change the world and make it a better place. But I was naïve. People working in the media today have more power than politicians, but what good is trying to tell the truth about the world when I can’t bear to be honest about my own story: who I am, where I came from, what I’ve done. There were a couple of plot points I found to be slightly confusing and one of the red herrings I thought was implausible and unnecessary, but a lot of other readers may disagree with me.

Some truly terrible things had happened in Anna's village and I definitely think she was in the right to leave it far behind. Regrettably, we all know buried secrets seldom stay buried. Alice Feeney’s His & Hers is quite the thriller whodunit. It had me zigging. And zagging. Constantly. Never have red herrings caused me to point my finger at so many suspects, assured of their guilt, only to turn right around and abandon my theories.

Richard Armitage and Stephanie Racine give an arresting performance of this dark psychological thriller...As secrets are uncovered and additional bodies are found, Armitage and Racine shine with impeccable pacing, building tension that adds to the suspense." -- AudioFile Magazine In her confession, Anna’s mom suggests that police officer Priya suspects her (either of her husband’s murder or of killing the women.) The killer was Anna’s mom, which there was no way to see coming. All the loose ends were tied up by the end though–she was faking dementia, so no one suspected her. She had watched Anna’s friends be terrible to her all through high school, and found the suicide note Anna had written and then burned. We gulped down this intense thriller in one heart-in-our-mouth afternoon – it's that good!’ Sun on Sunday Fabulous Coincidentally, Cat Jones is the same Catharine that was at Anna’s birthday party; she is also married to Anna’s cameraman in the present storyline. This was a huge red herring, though. The Spoilers:

Prior to reading His & Hers, I had heard a lot of positive buzz surrounding author, Alice Feeney. Having completed this novel, I definitely see what all the fuss is about. MANY thanks to NetGalley, Flatiron Books, and the incredible Alice Feeney for an ARC of this book! FINALLY available in the US as of 7/28!* Also, she was faking her dementia. When she found something Anna wrote about the horrifying events at her sixteenth birthday party, she blamed Rachel, Zoe and Helen for taking Anna away from her, as Anna fled town after the incident.This whole experience reminds me of buying a sandwich from a pricey shop, it looked good, it seemed like your sort of thing, you wanted to like it, but there was just no substance to it, ITleft a bad taste in your mouth and made you feel a bit grim afterwards! There was no time for a trip to hair and makeup that day. They rushed me on set and did what they could, powdering my face at the same time as they miked me up. I practiced reading the headlines on the teleprompter, and the director was calm and kind in my earpiece. His voice steadied me. I remember very little about that first half-hour program, but I do recall the congratulations afterward. From newsroom nobody to network news anchor in less than an hour. What we don’t know.. Well, Baaah! Alice Feeney sure fooled me. That’s all I have to say about that. She started writing her first novel, Sometimes I Lie, when she was 30, writing in her spare time and on the train to work. She took the Faber Academy writing course, finishing the book and course at about the same time. [3] By the end of revelation you will get the answer of Who? and Why? but you will be confused to answer how?

The alternating perspectives were such a great way to watch this story unfold. My mind was spinning trying to piece together what was happening and who the mystery perspective was. Faster and more twisted than a roller coaster with an ending that’ll make your stomach drop, Alice Feeney’s Sometimes I Lie is not to be missed. I loved it!” — Mary Kubica, New York Times bestselling author of The Good Girl and Every Last Lie I open the plastic carry case and put one of my carefully constructed cupcakes down on the pavement, between her cardboard box and the wall, so that she’ll see it when she wakes. Then, worried she might not like or appreciate my chocolate frosting—for all I know she could be diabetic—I take a twenty-pound note from my purse and slide it underneath. I don’t mind if she spends my money on alcohol; I do. All lead messy and imperfect lives, but where other reviewers disliked them-I actually felt sorry for them and was hoping they would eventually find their way...A news presenter and a police detective are brought together by murders in the British village where they both grew up. The first POV is that of Anna Andrews, a news journalist that has finally been working in her dream job. She is anchoring a noon hour broadcast on BBC. She has given up a lot to get here, started from the very bottom rung of the ladder, even sacrificing her relationship with her husband which ended in divorce. She is never really happy with herself though, is an alcoholic and eats almost nothing to maintain the look that she wants. This is the second book that I have read from Alice Feeney. The first one was ‘Sometimes I Lie’ which I gave 5 stars. But I liked this one even more!
