JIn Ericsson¶s essay The Ways We Lie, she writes 9 descriptions and examples of lies weall encounter every single day. It¶s implied throughout the essay that humans often do not intendto lie, but we all do in various ways. We choose to make life easier by ignoring facts,confrontation, or potentially bad situations through a lie. A theme Ericsson focuses on isdeciding when to lie. The trick of thought when telling a white lie is that you begin to think youknow what¶s best for the person being lied to.
The Ways We Lie by Stephanie Ericsson explains how everyone lies in this world, one way or another. Ericsson expresses the many ways people lie and why they do so. She educates her audience by describing the different types of lies told daily by sharing personal stories, asking rhetorical questions and creates hypothetical situations to support her statements. She begins with the white lie, which is a harmless lie instead of the truth, if the truth was bad news. Then she continues to explain a façade, changing your personality making people believe something you are not.
This book was interesting for me because it allowed me to relate to a character. I love reading novels that not only allow me to feel a connection with a character, but allow me to relate to their personality or
We Were Liars is a gripping young adult novel by E. Lockhart that centers on the Sinclair family and their glamorous lifestyle. The story follows the protagonist, Cadence Sinclair Eastman, and her family as they vacation on a private island every summer. However, the idyllic setting is disrupted when Cadence experiences a traumatic accident that causes her to lose her memory. As she tries to piece together the events that led to her injury, she discovers that her family has been keeping dark secrets from her. The novel explores the themes of privilege, family dynamics, and the consequences of one's mistakes.
It 's a jaw-dropping book that will leave you wanting more as the author Laurie writes in a crisp and clear way describing the young girl Melinda’s horrific story and how it unfolds. The author 's tone gives off the vibe of a young frighted girl which I find really enhances this sad, but exhilarating story. This story taught me to always speak up for myself and to never let anyone take advantage of me. I would recommend this novel because it is extremely detailed, painting vivid pictures in your mind that really help to magnify and
3. This book is one of the great classics of literature. It’s impact on modern pop culture and the modern horror genre are outstanding. I am very glad I read this book. I adore all the little details in this book that make you wonder if it could ever be real.

The Dogon tribe believes that women must be over power by men but men still need them.

Their group called themselves “the liars”. In summer 15 Cadence suffered a serious brain injury and lost every memory from that year. She wasn’t allowed to go back to the island or do much of anything for two years. When Cadence could finally go back to island the memories from summer 15 slowly began coming back. She remembered that “the liars’ had drank a couple of beers and then planned to set fire to the family homes.
We were liars is a story about the ideals we are all supposed to aspire to, simply because of the way our society defines success; as being forceful, reckless, hasty and bold. The dauntless ideal Cadence falls prey for. In my opinion the book is trying to shed light on the insidious backside of our idea of heroism, and the too often gruesome consequences it might bring. That it more frequently than not results in the unnecessary suffering of others. Cady’s cousin Mirren on the other hand, had a very different life motto: ”Always be kinder than you have to”.
