Editorial Reviews

Review

“In this engrossing novel from British author Parks (I Invited Her In), a multitude of lies swirls around the supposedly happy marriage of Daisy, a London primary school teacher, and Simon Barnes, an interior designer... readers will find this sobering tale of how alcoholism affects family and friends hard to put down.” —Publishers Weekly

“This domestic thriller is one that will surprise readers and keep them reading through the night.” — The Parkersburg News & Sentinel

This book took me forever to finish and I feel could’ve done 100 pages less. Lots of lies, deception, alcoholism, and abuse. Trigger warning for domestic violence.

I did see it through and the last 100 pages were a resolution that I was glad to see.

A domestic thriller worth reading
Reviewed in the United States on September 29, 2019
Verified Purchase
This book was recommended to me by author Clare Mackintosh.

Primary school teacher Daisy and her interior decorator husband, Simon, are living in North-London with their six year old daughter, Millie. The marriage was always happy, and became more so when Daisy finally got pregnant after many years of trying. The only problem is that Simon drinks too much, and when he finds reason to believe that he isn't Millies birth father, the drinking gets out of control. As a consequence, a terrible accident puts an end to the happy family life - maybe for good?

I've read several domestic thrillers this year, and this is one of the better. It works well that the story alternate between Daisy's and Simon's points of view. There are also a couple of twists that took me completely by surprise. On the downside the book is too long and a bit repetitive, but all the same I quite enjoyed it.

First, I really enjoy Adele Parks books. I’ve read several. I really enjoyed I invited Her In! So I was excited to read Lies, Lies, Lies. Well, I was disappointed. It seemed to go on forever. The first part was sad, and upsetting. The middle, drawn out and then end, well kind of hard to believe. I hate to say this, as I couldn’t write a book ever! But this was not the best.

Lies Lies Lies - Just no, no, no
Reviewed in the United States on November 30, 2020

I can't believe I finished this book. I read it on Kindle, and first started checking -"how much more of this?" - at 29%. It starts with an enormous amount of detail on infertility issues and treatments, and I thought, 'okay, that's what this is about.' Then it was a tremendous amount of detail on alcoholism - and I thought, 'okay, THIS is what it's about.' Then it went on and on. The book needs to be trimmed by at least 25%. I found myself skimming past pages and pages of descriptions that just went on forever. I did not like any of the characters. None. The only one (of about 6) that was remotely likable was Luke, probably because he was given the smallest amount of coverage. They call these people friends??? Who needs friends like these? And it goes on and on with nothing really happening to move the story along until about 8-0% in. I normally only review books that I really enjoyed, but I'm doing you a favor here. Spend your time on something else. My apologies to the author.

Please be aware that some of the characters in the book are dealing with alcoholism, domestic violence and rape. If you are sensitive with those themes, don't read it.

Simon and Daisy are supposed to be happily married. Even if he is always drunk and she has a few dark secrets of her own. After a not very well going party at their best friends, a lifechanging incident happens so Simon and Daisy are forced to a new start which is everything else but not easy.

Lies Lies Lies by Adele Parks is gripping and very dramatic until the last quarter of the book were everything seems to fall apart in the storyline. Everything was so much over the top that I cringed every so often while reading the last pages. I think the author had all good intentions with her character development( but its all just black and white. The good, the bad, the ugly and the stupid) and for the story, but it didn't work out for me. I give it 3 stars out of 5 because I finished it in a short amount of time, but the book surely is not one of her best.

Brave, thought-provoking, disturbing and very, very moving
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on July 23, 2022

Lies, Lies, Lies was a very difficult book to read, and not one that I’d slap the ‘enjoyable’ label onto! It was a page-turner, it was stuffed full of really, really well-drawn characters, but the subject matter was deeply troubling and the two main protagonists themselves were so deeply unlikable – deliberately so. A very brave book for a writer to write.
Simon is a drinker. I found the opening scene, where we are shown the path he’s going to take with drink really, really difficult to read, it rang so painfully true. The lies Simon tells himself and others, and perhaps even more painful, the lies that Daisy tells herself and others made for a very emotional read. Sadly, many of us have witnessed this kind of behaviour in family or friends. It was the familiarity of the pattern in Simon’s behaviour and in Daisy’s that I found so difficult to take, and in fact I had to stop reading at times, and go read something less disturbing.
Daisy and Simon’s marriage is falling apart, but they’re holding it together because they remember how it used to be, and because they both adore their daughter. Then something appalling happens, and it all begins to unravel. But it doesn’t unravel in a simple way. Just when you think you know who’s to blame, you discover another pertinent fact. You re-adjust your thoughts, then you learn something else. In this book, there’s absolutely no simple explanations. There’s lots and lots of causes and effects. There’s historical causes beyond the control of the protagonists, but there’s also decisions that they make on impulse. For good reasons. For bad reasons. Or because they simply don’t think it through. Above all else, what I think this novel does is show that there’s no simple explanations, not obvious reasons that can be corrected and ‘cure’ addiction. Life is complex, and even when you have to understand a chain of events and the motivation behind it – say, to make a legal judgement – you can’t. There’s no black and white. So you have to decide which shade of grey to go with.
I’m sorry if this doesn’t make sense, but I don’t want to give any of the plot away. This book made me think a lot about the disease of alcoholism, but also about how desperate people can become when they have one goal, only one goal, and they can’t achieve it. It also made me think about our ‘justice’ system. In these dark political times, that has been on my mind a great deal. Is there any such thing as justice? Hmm, if you’ll forgive the pun, the jury is out on that one!
