Little Liar Reviews

Gray has a sure-footed understanding of the adolescent mind (so much so that I often winced in pleasurable recognition) and creates a gripping, smoothly executed psychodrama... I genuinely could not stop reading this: a treat for teens and above. -- Philip Womack * Literary Review *
Julia Gray's impressive, Patricia Highsmith inspired Little Liar... puts readers into the hands of the ultimate unreliable narrator for a story that never lets you stay too long on stable ground - it's nail-biting stuff. * Waterstones Children's Summer Reading Round-Up *
This gripping psychological thriller, crackling with the intensities of female friendship, confirms [Julia Gray] as a highly original new talent in YA fiction -- Fiona Noble * The Bookseller *
Julia Gray's second novel is a superb psychological thriller with a distinctive voice, a clever blend of contemporary realism and classic noir. -- Claire Hennessy * Inis Reading Guide *
Julia Gray has created an immensely powerful psychological thriller which challenges our whole understanding of behaviour and warns against passing judgement * Carousel *
Intelligent, gripping, highly original. -- Andrea Reece * Lovereading *
Intense, psychological, gripping; The Talented Mr Ripley for YA -- Anna McKerrow
Smart, gripping and sharply-observed YA, with a pitch-perfect narrative voice. * Katherine Woodfine *
Another wildly inventive, thrillingly unreliable narrator from the immeasurably talented Julia Gray. Full of twists and turns this story leaves you wondering who is telling the tallest story. A great novel about truth and lies and what we need to believe to stay alive. -- Julia Bell
...a gripping, memorable page turner that I am glad to have read. * Teach Secondary *
