📕Lies Between Friends by @aaabbottstories.bsky.social 📕

Up for pre-order now,

Starting at Day 12 of the story, the tale is then told through chronological chapters from different characters POV. I certainly didn’t guess the perpetrator.

Autumn has arrived. Looking for a #feelgood read when you can curl in a cosy chair? Or if still going away, good for an easy read by the pool. Look at all these from which to choose.
