From the thrilling first page to the jaw – dropping surprise ending, you’ll never trust another word you hear again – even your own. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/41590033-ever-told Thank you to Benjamin Bremasi and Book Sirens for providing me with an ebook copy of Ever Told for me to review. This was a unique locked door mystery. The story was told from multiple points of view and skipped back and forth in time. These multiple points of view helped to shape the story in a very interesting way from each person’s perspective, but the time jumps were a bit tricky to follow at times. There was a very large number of characters also, which I felt could have been introduced a bit more in-depth near the beginning of the book, as it was difficult to remember who’s who. Overall, the story was filled with great intrigue and mystery and multiple twists, keeping the reader guessing until the very end, and even creating enough suspicion and suspense to redirect attention onto a completely innocent character. I did guess the main twist before it was revealed, but I did not even come close to anticipating the final, ominous added twist. There were numerous typos and wording errors/omissions throughout the book which detracted from the flow of the story for me as a reader. 3 Stars!
