Goodreads Synopsis: 

 Sadie Kingston, is a girl living in the aftermath. A year after surviving a car accident that killed her friend Trent and left her body and face scarred, she can’t move forward. The only person who seems to understand her is Trent’s brother, Max. As Sadie begins to fall for Max, she's unsure if she is truly healed enough to be with him — even if Max is able to look at her scars and not shy away. But when the truth about the accident and subsequent events comes to light, Sadie has to decide if she can embrace the future or if she'll always be trapped in the past. 

 My Review:  (Spoiler) I believe Courtney C. Stevens has done it again! She has written yet another great story, called The Lies About Truth. It is yet another story about real life struggles. The main character Sadie has to deal with her physical scars that came about from a car accident. She also has to deal with a friend she lost, and friends she was slowly pushing away. Slowly letting them slip away. I do enjoy reading a story like this because it shows me how people can be strong and actually get through those struggles. I enjoyed reading about her having a new relationship blossom because of the accident. Especially reading about how she got through her list of what she wanted to conquer to get back to herself. So she wouldn't be hiding and secluding herself anymore. There are a lot of folks who go through plenty of different terrible things. This is a good story that shows everyone we can be strong and conquer what we need to, to get back to where we want to be. 

I understand in my own way with my mental issues. I try to make my own lists also that I am working on. Some are attempting to drive again, attempting to fight the anxiety/depression I deal with. I want to make it to where I can work again. Just this morning I was feeling down and like I was getting nowhere. I believe finally reading the rest of this book this morning reminded me I need to keep trying. I pray With God's help I will eventually get there. I enjoy reading anything Stevens writes about, even if it has sad and struggling in the story. She reminds me with her stories that I or anyone can get through these storms and overcome them. I seriously cannot wait to see what else she comes out with. I wish there was a new book already coming out right now so I could read it. Her writing is very easy at catching and keeping your attention. You always want to see how things end up. So make sure to grab this book and give it a read. It won't be any time wasted at all. Have a Blessed Day!

Afternoon Loverlies! The other day I entered a giveaway on FictionTheNewReality's blog. So far this is the second entry I have won. The other win was on another blog i posted here. It was an awesome entry also!! She has been having some awesome entry's actually. Y'all should check them out! :) I'm so excited I won this book. It is Faking Normal by Courtney C. Stevens. Along with winning I received an awesome postcard, the author personally wrote a message to me on. I also received two bracelets that have Channeling Brave written on them. I gave my second bracelet to my sister in law. I love it!!

Now the rest will be a bit of a spoiler. Not to much though. ;) I Don't know how else to talk about the book though without giving a little bit of it away. This book was very easy to read. I believe it was very well written also. Alexi has a terrible secret that she feels she cannot share with anyone. Bodee also has something terrible that has happened to him. His not quite a secret. You start off with Bodee at his mothers funeral. Which is the worst, and sadly I have experienced this, a mother's funeral that is. Here is where Alexi first starts being there for him. Since the passing of his mother Alexi's mother decides its is best for Bodee to live in their home instead of staying with his brother Ben. Throughout the story you have Bodee and Alexi helping each other try to deal with what they each are going through. To help them slowly get rid of the harmful ways they have learned to cope with their sadness. It's a beautiful story, which reminds me of how important friends are to have in your life. Not only friends but God. You have them in your life to help you to "Channeling Brave". You will see this word in the book. I love these words Channeling Brave. It is nice to have that throughout your life to help remind you to keep strong. ;) I know I connected with these two characters. Not just because I have dealt with some traumatic issues in my life, but because it is so easy to get entranced in this book. I know it was for me at least. lol I suggest giving this book a try! I don't believe it will be a mistake if you did. Ta Ta For Now!
