This is the last book by her I'll try, I hated this book

It starts out with so much information about an eclipse and so boring I skipped over that part, it doesn't have anything to do with the story except it was the event happening at the time when this story actually started

The writing style is terrible, so many descriptions and meandering off into other things it was just boring, the use of the 'f' word just seemed inserted in all the wrong places and just for shock effect, not everyone needs that word in every book, if it's shock you're after then try making the story a thriller instead of this crap!

The dialogue conversations were so stupid and boring(I know I keep saying boring over and over believe me it's boring)and a lot of it just doesn't even make any sense at all and I had to ask myself 'do people really talk like that?' I doubt it

I really enjoyed this book. It started as a slow burn but had many twists and turns. It's told from different points of view in different time periods but that only enhances the lead up to the whole story. It's about love; it's about friendship; it's about truthfulness. It keeps you on the edge of your seat. I didn't want it to end.

In the summer of 1999, Kit and Laura travel to a festival in Cornwall to see a total eclipse of the sun. Kit is an eclipse chaser; Laura has never seen one before. Young and in love, they are certain this will be the first of many they'll share. They come across what appears to be a guy raping a girl. Laura knows that she saw something terrible. The man denies it. It is her word against his. He Said/She Said is a gripping tale of the lies we tell to save ourselves, the truths we cannot admit, and how far we will go to make others believe our side of the story.

I found the first half of the book to be a slow-read but from the middle to the end was a unputdownable page-turner. I did not see the twist at the end and it was a definite surprise and made up for the slow beginning. I would recommend this book to those who like psychological thrillers about lies and relationships.
