Why read it?

1 author picked At the Speed of Lies as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

We’re back to me being a baby again. As soon as people start dying, I’m usually out. That wasn’t the case with Cindy Otis’ mystery. I loved the high stakes and the part that disability played in the novel.

It all felt like a thoroughly modern version of a classic murder mystery, with our hearts racing as we reached the end. Also, the fact that this YA novel was written by an actual former member of the CIA is just objectively cool. 

From Marissa's list on disabled 2024 debut YA authors.
