About this listen

The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo meets First Lie Wins in this electric, voice-driven debut novel about an elusive bestselling author who decides to finally confess her true identity after years of hiding from her past.

Cate Kay knows how to craft a story. As the creator of a bestselling book trilogy that struck box office gold as a film series, she’s one of the most successful authors of her generation. The thing is, Cate Kay doesn’t really exist. She’s never attended author events or granted any interviews. Her real identity had been a closely guarded secret, until now.

As a young adult, she and her best friend Amanda dreamed of escaping their difficult homes and moving to California to become movie stars. But the day before their grand adventure, a tragedy shattered their dreams and Cate has been on the run ever since, taking on different names and charting a new future. But after a shocking revelation, Cate understands that returning home is the only way she’ll be a whole person again.

Hated the ending

Not a fan of flat endings, happy but flat. it lacked the details that were shared throughout the whole book. Neat and tidy endings seem like the easy way not.

Entertaining

It was a good story but at times lacked depth and nuance. It also was tied up a little too nicely. The main character does something pretty terrible to just be forgiven so easily or accepted back.

Flash backs and forwards

There were a lot of different flash backs and forwards and the story kept going back and forth between characters. Some characters I didn’t feel need to have a one of chapter. Overall it was a good read and in the end we all need grace.

Fantastic Book!

This book is our generation’s Rubyfruit Jungle but far more satisfying and better written. Excellent work.

Enjoyed it

It was hard to get into this book at first. The different voices and characters were confusing and hard to keep track of. I almost gave up, but I stuck with it and I am glad I did. It ended up being a wonderful story that is very well written, complex characters, and an intricate, layered plot.

I still maintain that there were too many characters and voices, and a few that really did not add much to the story, but it was fine. Just keep in mind that the characters you really need to keep track of are Cass/Annie, Amanda, and Ryan, and to a lesser degree, Sydney. The rest really are not important to the story.

Overall, I liked it.

Incredible Story!

I honestly don't know why this story is so captivating but it held my attention and was an incredible ride the whole way through. Now I'm going to go listen again so I can capture anything I missed the first time. I hope there are more stories like this in the writers future!
