The Things I Didn't Do

Erica Miller was accused of killing her husband twenty-five years ago, but was found not guilty. She has decided that now is the time to tell her side of the story after years of the media telling their side.

The first part of the book is from Erica's point of view. She hires Prue Carr to write her memoir. You read Erica tell her side of the story. How the media wrote nothing but lies. At first it seems simple enough, but as their relationship progresses and Prue asks questions, Erica reveals more information that may not be as favoring toward her.

The second part of the book is Prue's point of view. You read about her impressions of Erica and how she will use this opportunity to write the book she wants. Against Erica's wishes she digs deeper into the story. The conversations Erica and Prue have are different from Prue's point of view. As if Erica thought she said one thing, but Prue hears something else. It was an interesting way to engage a reader and make you think, what did Erica really do?

The last part brings about the conflict Prue faces while trying to figure out what story to write. She was hired to write Erica's side, but also feels like there is enough to the story to write her own.

I enjoyed this book and the way the author broke it into parts. The author still left mystery leaving the reader to guess what really happened.

Thank you to Love Books Tour and Charlotte Barnes for the opportunity to read The Things I Didn't Do.
