You should know, right now, that I m a liar.
They re usually little lies. Tiny lies. Baby lies. Not so much lies as lie adjacent. But they re still lies.
College girl Max Monroe has it all: beauty, friends, and a glittering life filled with adventure. With tons of followers on Instagram, her picture-perfect existence seems eminently enviable.
Except it s all fake.
Max is actually 17-year-old Kat Sanchez, a quiet and sarcastic teen living in drab Bakersfield, California. Nothing glamorous about her existence just sprawl, bad house parties, a crap school year, and the awkwardness of dealing with best friend Hari s unrequited love.
But while Kat s life is far from perfect, she thrives as Max: doling out advice, sharing beautiful photos, networking with fans, even making a real friend in a follower named Elena. The closer Elena and Max get texting, Snapping, even calling the more Kat feels she has to keep up the façade. But when one of Max s posts goes viral and gets back to the very person she s been stealing photos from, her entire world real and fake comes crashing down around her. She must figure out how to escape the huge web of lies she s created without hurting the people she loves...
But it might already be too late.
