Liar-Justine Larbalestier


Micah is a compulsive liar. She lies about everything...well almost everything. When her kinda-boyfriend, Zach, dies, Micah's lies catch up to her and rumors spread. She's not only a suspect, but she was also dating a guy who already had a girl friend.
This book is a bit of a puzzle. The chapters are mainly titled BEFORE or AFTER. There's some pretty interesting stuff in it. Micah's a werewolf, which would be easy to figure out if you read the tags to this book and the first bit about her being born with a light coating of fur.
Micah is half black, half white. She lives in New York City. She like biology. Her grandma and great-aunt called the "Greats" live upstate on a farm with her cousins, some of who are wolves too. They live without modern technology and Micah doesn't want to go there. I'm afraid if I spoil anymore I will ruin the mystery, but I'll just say that this book will catch your interest, flipping the pages for you. A non-stop mystery-thriller! The author, She's married to Scott Westerfeld. She wrote the Magic or Madness trilogy that I loved!
