The Color of Lies is a mind-bending story that will keep you hanging by the edge of your seat. When the main character, Ella, meets the mysterious Alec, her world gets turned upside down. Together they will unleash deep family secrets that will change Ella’s life forever. The imagery the book possessed was surreal, it really felt like I was living inside the story.
I think that this book was great. I would highly recommend this book to anyone who likes a little romance but also a little conflict. Anyone who likes K-pop especially will enjoy this book a ton. I think it has the perfect mix of having to choose what you love, over who you love. In this book a girl had to choose her dream of playing cello, over her special love interest. Overall, I loved reading this book and getting sucked into K-pop romance and I think anyone else who might enjoy that will love this book and I think they should read it.
