To Be Perfectly Honest: A Novel Based on an Untrue Story

Can honesty lead to heartbreak if the truth is subjective? A compelling novel in verse from Sonya Sones.Her friends have a joke about her:How can you tell if Colette is lying? Her mouth is open. Fifteen-year-old Colette is addicted to lying. Her shrink says this is because she’s got a very bad case of Daughter-of-a-famous-movie-star Disorder—so she lies to escape out from under her mother’s massive shadow. But Colette doesn’t see it that way. She says she lies because it’s the most fun she can have with her clothes on. Not that she’s had that much fun with her clothes off. At least not yet, anyway… When her mother drags her away from Hollywood to spend the entire summer on location in a boring little town in the middle of nowhere, Colette is less than thrilled.
