I have heard amazing things about Waking Lions, also by Ayelet Gundar-Goshen, but The Liar was available at the library first, so I started with her second book rather than her debut. If nothing else, this one grabs you just because of the cover. I liked this somewhat quiet story about a teenager who made one simple mistake that spiraled out of control. It makes you think a lot about the truth and how people spin things for their own gain.
