We Were Liars

I'm

reading Keeper of the Lost Cities 2, We Were Liars, and I am reading The Tattooist of Auschwitz.

But I'm going to dress up as the nose from...

It's from a little short story.

We're looking at evolutions of the story.

Let's look at We Were Liars, adapted in 2025 for Prime Video based on E. Lockhart's incredible 2014 novel.

This one survived.

It's returning for Season 2.

A brilliant strategy to preserve the twist.

Exactly.

We Were Liars has a legendary twist.

Yeah.

A podcast style, which I do also like.

Um, We Were Liars.

Yeah.

What I like about that one and this one is the way our minds have a tendency to play tricks on us, and how sometimes our minds will bury certain things in a certain way because of how painful they are, that we just don't even wanna, like, we don't wanna revisit it.

She was the editor of Good People.

She preempted a three-book deal for a new series of books, and the first book is called Nancy, and it's by E. Lockhart, who wrote We Were Liars and that series of books, and then Sarah Milanowski.

And in this, Nancy Drew is a divorced 40-something Brooklyn mom whose sleuthing days are behind her, but who must team up with her ex-childhood best friend to solve a case, and it's set in present day.

That's fun.
