I really wish they’d not messed with the tv show. This book deserved the screen.

I’ve made the trip to Jake’s house in Ramona dozens of times, but never like this: with Nate losing his mind beside me and Maeve leaning over the center console from the back seat, staring intently at my speedometer.

One of Us Is Lying by Karen M. McManus
Four students go into detention, only four walk out alive. Who killed Simon? When secrets Simon knew about the other four students get leaked, any of them could be the killer.
Omg, I enjoyed this so much. I don't like a lot of mysteries/thrillers, but this had me guessing at every turn and I had such a delightful time listening to it. Yesterday, when I got home from work, I just went to my room and kept listening.
Recommended for: people who enjoy a solid murder mystery, fans of Ace of Spades (another book I read recently with similar vibes), and people who like a full cast audiobook.
Content warnings: murder, incarceration, cheating, gossip blogging, suicide

this book makes me feel giddy and stupid and reminds me of times i was happy. i still remember falling in love with nate and bronwyn and growing fond of characters like addie and maeve and phoebe cuz they deserve the world and everything in it. my heart pines for something like they have, a found sister, or a friend to lean on, or just somebody who you will look at and feel like wanting to be better for. this book and these characters mean everything to me.

REVIEW: One of Us Is Lying by Karen M McManus
*Contains Spoilers*
5/5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
This is one of those rare cases that I actually watched the tv show, before I read the book. The show was really good, and I figured since I loved it so much the book must be even better.
If you're wondering this book is like a mix of Breakfast club - gossip girl - Pretty little liars - and even revenge.
Its the epitome of YA murder mystery that I ADORE!
There were actually some really big differences between the first season of the show and the book. It didn't alter my rating, I am actually glad we get 2 alternate endings in both. One a little lighter, and one a little darker.
The #1 major difference between the series and the book is the identity of Simon's killer. In the show, Jake and Simon planned a prank where Simon would fake an allergic reaction to peanut oil, but Jake got scared when Simon revealed he had recorded their conversations. Jake stole the epi pens, leading to Simon's death. In the book, Simon died by suicide and involved Jake in his plan to frame others for his murder. The series added the detail of Simon being the mayor's son, which wasn't significant in the book. Simon brought Jake in to take over About That after his death. Jake was pure evil, as he also manipulated a conversation with Janae to blackmail her into compliance after Simon’s death.
I liked Simon’s story better in the series as it was less “13 reasons why” and more a murder situation. Jake & Simon were also more “friendly” in the series than the books and there was no mention of Simon’s funeral & the xbox in the book.
#2 Nate and Bronwyn's relationship had more development in the book. In the series, Bronwyn initially dated Evan but became interested in Nate after Simon's death.
I really enjoyed their romance more in the books. I understand that for tv they may have wanted to drag out them coming together a bit more for ratings, but the book did it well. Bronwyn does sort of ‘date’ Evan at the end of the book, but of course ends up back with Nate. I also liked both characters better in the book.
#3 Maeve in the book was the gang's tech expert but was not romantically involved with Simon or Janae. However, in the series, she had romantic ties to both of them. Bronwyn still had a reason to confront Simon in the book due to an About That post about her sister, and Maeve appeared on the app after getting drunk at a party, not for sexting as shown in the show.
I enjoyed Maeve way better in the book than in the series. In the series she was conniving and at odds with her sister at times. Bronwyn kept so many secrets from her and in the book they were very close, and Bronwyn told her everything.
#4 The detention teacher, Mrs. Avery, played a role in Simon's death in the series by being blackmailed to get the Bayview Four into detention. In the book, Mr. Avery was the detention teacher and had no involvement in Simon's death. Simon paid students from another school to create a fender bender to remove Mrs. Avery from the room.
I was expecting this to be the same in the book as they kept hinting that the police should look into the teacher but in the end they had nothing to do with it.
# 5 Cooper's outing as gay had more significant consequences in the book. In the series, his brother and girlfriend already knew about his sexual orientation, but in the book, Cooper was completely closeted. Cooper's father's reaction was also more homophobic in the book.
I preferred Cooper’s story more in the books than in the series.
#6 Kris, Cooper's boyfriend, had a minor role in the book since Cooper was not out. In the series, Kris knew Nate and attended Cooper's baseball showcase. In the book, Kris knew Cooper was in high school and not out, leading to a temporary breakup in the series. Despite his limited role, Kris was the one who connected the dots about Simon's depression and dark suicide plot in the book.
I loved Kris in the book, but not so much on the show. I felt like their relationship overall was much healthier in the book. Once Cooper was outed he and Kris were basically hanging out with the murder club openly and I liked Kris’ involvement.
#7 Janae knew about Simon's whole plan in the book.
I liked Janae so much more in the show. In the book she knew everything and let it happen. I found it very disturbing she knew Simon was planning on this suicide mission and she try to didnt prevent it.
#8 Jake was arrested, and not killed in the book. Whereas in the show, Addy kills him when he attacked them in the forest after a party.
This is a major twist and is different from the show. Which will make watching season 2 and reading book 2 completely different experiences.
There were other small differences in the series vs the books, I couldn't keep track of all of them but one that stood out was Ashton’s presence in Addy’s life. She was around for everything. She wasn't in the series.

I see a lot of one of us is lying reviews where people are criticising how Karen wrote stereotypical teen characters, the criminal, the brain, the princess and the jock. However what I find shocking is that people aren’t realising that that is the point of the characters. That they are these stereotypes. But as the book goes on the break from these moulds. I’m just shocked that people have read this story and haven’t realised this yet.
