Sometimes I Lie by Alice Feeney

This book is about a woman who is in a coma in the hospital and can't remember what has happened to her. The book alternates between the present-day story, where Amber is in the coma and trying to piece together what happened based on what she can hear from the people around her talking, and flashbacks to Amber's childhood through diary entries from several decades ago. You can tell that something super creepy and traumatizing happened at some point, and that something is super wrong. Plus, the very first thing you learn is that she's probably lying to us in her retelling of what happened. The book has a huge twist that affects everything you know about the characters, and then the ending was super surprising to me as well. This was a totally creepy, suspenseful read (listen) and it was a great one to listen to while driving across the country for our long road trip.
