Thank you for NetGalley for providing me with this book for review. Wow, this book draws you in, you start to feel uncomfort, by the end you are feeling horrified, so very twisty. You finish feeling mind blown and want to start reading it again. My favourite of the year so far.

A great book by Lisa Jewell. Plenty of twists and turns trying to work out what was going on and who was telling the truth. I couldn’t read it quick enough but also am gutted it’s finished. This has to be up there as one of the best books by this author so far. I highly recommend this book and author.

I want to start off by saying that this is EASILY the best Lisa Jewell book I have ever read.
This book was full of twists & turns and it had me truthfully on the edge of my seat! I found it to be really challenging to figure out who was telling the truth in the situation which made me fall in love with this book even more.
If you’re a lover of crime or thriller novels, this is a definite must. I wish I could read it for the first time again!

This book will go down as one of the best psychological thrillers I’ve ever read! It has a compelling premise and even more compelling characters; a disturbing mystery at its core; shocking twists, and a fresh narration method that makes the book impossible to put down.

Thanks to NetGalley, RandomHouse UK, Cornerstone and Lisa Jewell for my ARC of ‘None of This is True’ in return for an honest review.
This is another brilliant novel from this author. So, this is about Alix, a famous podcaster and a woman, Josie, she meets at her birthday party who is her birthday twin . They were born on the same day, same year, same hospital.
We are led along a dark path from Josie,.
Utterly amazing. Just read it.

5 Stars from me
I have read and loved some Lisa Jewell books before but WOW this one is surely her best yet?
The books follows the life of Alix and Josie who meet purely by accident and discover they are 'birthday twins'. But there, the similarity between them ends and Josie (super strange, weird, creepy as all hell Josie) clearly covets the life of her 'twin'.
I was utterly, utterly hooked throughout this book and had severe trouble putting it down - fans of psychological thrillers will not be disappointed.
But this is not just a wham bam thank you mam thriller, the story is complex and clever and it delivers again and again as the dark and arranged tale unfolds.
Great book - highly recommended!

Every Lisa Jewell book gets better and better - this one tops them all! Downtrodden Josie Fair meets her birthday twin, podcaster Alix Summers, while celebrating her special day. When Josie persuades Alix to make a podcast about how she is going to change her own life, Alix is intrigued and is prepared to spend hours researching Josie’s past. When Josie starts to infiltrate Alix’s life, problems beging.
This is a brilliant book which I could not put down. Knowing from the start that there are three fatalities keeps you guessing throughout. A must read.

None of this is true. # NetGalley
Wow what a read. Alex meets someone whilst celebrating her 45 birthday. They are birthday twins. Even born at the same hospital. Josie Google’s Alix and finds out she runs a podcast about women who have survived the marriage to become powerful in their own fight. Josie finds out we’re Alix lives. And asks her to make a podcast of Simone who is about to make changes in her coming life. Now I will not mention anything that’s said during the podcast as I would not want to spoil it for anyone. But believe me you do not want to miss this book. It’s one of shock twist and turns. Somethings. Josie talks about makes Alix squirm with utter disgust. Joist manipulates a dinner invertasion for herself and her husband. Which end in disaster as Alix husband never made it back as he was prone to go on a bender. It’s a tail of someone who actually beloved in what she says. She will not accept that she’s flawed in anyway. I was so shocked at somethings that’s take place.,I never ever expected certain things to happens it’s quite a shock. Ending also a shock towards the end. This is a book that should definitely be read. Lisa jewel has really out donrvher self with this book. It’s a masterpiece and I can not recommend it enough. A MUST READ

BRILLIANT! Kept me up all night, It was suspenseful and page turning. There was no way of predicting how this story would turn out. Great book. Recommended read.

Thank you to Netgalley for an advanced copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
Lisa Jewell is what I describe as a quality author. None of her books disappoints. This one is no exception. A brilliantly plotted book with a fabulous storyline and great characters with a brilliant ending.
I have read all of Lisa's books, and they get better and better. An easy five stars.

I loved this! It's one of those books that I was looking forward to reading every night over the past few days. I was instantly immersed in it; there's no time wasted in trying to figure who's who and where they all fit together - you're dropped into their lives and are immediately immersed in the plot. It's a really interesting premise and I loved the fact that Alix was not perfect either - she was very human and her relationship with Nathan was very well done and very real. As for Josie and her story - fascinating, gripping, jaw-dropping. All the peripheral characters were really intriguing too. The story is brilliantly well done. It's one of those books that makes it hard to move on to the next read as I didn't want to leave it behind. I'll be recommending this to everybody!

Alix and Josie met by chance when they are both at the same pub celebrating their birthday, it turns out they were born on the same day and in the same hospital, however this is where the similarities end. Their lives could not be any more different.
Alix is a successful podcaster and live in a huge house with her husband and two kids, Josie works part time as a seamstress and lives in a council flat with her husband and one of her two daughters. Josie sees this encounter as her opportunity to change her life and convinces Alix to do a podcast about her.
Josie shares her life story with Alix and it soon comes to light that Josie has some very dark secrets, and Alix wants to uncover them, though she will regret bringing Josie into her life...
Another great book by Lisa Jewell, you become totally engrossed with the story and cant put it down until it is finished.

None of this is true by Lisa Jewell. What a brilliant book.. I could hardly put it down.
Thanks to NetGalley and the publishers for the ARC.

Gee whiz, what a stonker of a book. Late nights as I did not want to put this down. Got to be a summer bestseller.
Twisted warped, plot after plot. Why did it end amazing? Lisa excels in big style this time.
5 stars are not enough for this book.

Forever thanks to Netgalley and Cornerstone for my ARC in exchange for an honest review and especially from one of my favourite authors. I will never ever get enough of the mind of Lisa Jewell! Another classic dark thriller from Lisa. If possible it feels like the darkest and most twisted in her repitoire. Alix is the perfect protagonist as a fan of podcasting she is absolutely spot on for me! I can’t praise this enough. 10/10 for me!

Wow, what a great read. As a fan of Lisa Jewell. I knew this book would be good, this one was no disappointment.
Alix, a podcast creator is approached by Josie. They discover that they are birthday twins and Josie suggests Alix make a podcast about her. Is what Josie telling Alix true or is it all lies?
I couldn't put this book down. I really enjoyed it.

Another great book from Losa Jewell. I read this book so quickly, I couldn't put it down! It was intense and full of twists and turns. It jumped between the story and a Netflix documentary and left me guessing what was going to happen next.

Wow wow wow
What a roller coaster. Very creepy and literally couldn't put it down!!
Feeling very lucky to have had the chance to read this so early 5*****

Josie goes out to celebrate her 45th birthday with her much older husband - a rare outing for the two of them. She is fascinated by a woman at the next table, Alix, also celebrating her 45th birthday but with a very different life, working in the media and surrounded by friends and family.
Josie begins to seek Alix out and when Alix decides that Josie would make a good subject for her series of podcasts their lives become entwined. Lisa Jewell is now established as the writer of gripping thrillers and this one is no exception. Extracts from the podcast interviews alongside the narrative give the reader a growing awareness of the characters and a growing sense of unease as the story proceeds.
I don't want to give any spoilers so suffice it to say that there are twists and turns along the way that lead to us questioning the veracity of all the players. Many thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for a review copy.

Wow, another amazing book from Lisa Jewell. This will definitely keep you on the edge of your seat.
From the beginning, the book moves between normal narration and excerpts from a Netflix documentary. The documentary interviews let you believe what's going to happen next but then the plot twists and you are left in suspense.
Alix and Josie are birthday twins, which they both discover when they randomly meet at a local gastropub while celebrating with their respective family and friends. Not only were they both born on the same date and year but also in the same hospital.
Upon discovering that Alix is a popular podcaster, Josie thinks she has a story to tell and makes the suggestion to Alix when "randomly" meet outside Alix's children's school.
Over a series of interviews, Alix delves into Josie's life; where she grew up, how she met her husband and bringing up her children. Josie also gets to know more about Alix's life and not always through conventional methods.
Events after a dinner party at Alix's home will have life changing affects on both their families.
The characters in the book are intriguing and all have a part to play in telling Josie's story.
Thanks to NetGalley, Lisa Jewell and the publisher for the opportunity to read an advanced copy.
