Liar

“I will tell you my story and I will tell it straight. No lies, no omissions”, said Micah the main character. This sentence is what really starts the book off, since it is on the first page, which tells you right away that she lies all the time, it comes to her so easy. She lies, but you find that out, she lets everyone believe she is a boy for example. Micah wants to turn a new leaf and change things she wants to start telling the truth which from my understanding is what the novel is about. The novel is about her past and how she lied, and the present, and how she is telling the readers the truth of what happened. She is telling the whole truth and nothing more threw the entire novel. It begins with her in the present, and how people feel about her, and how they all say she always lies, they all know it. So now she needs to prove to everyone that she wants to start telling the truth. From my point of view she makes a promise to herself that she will not lie in the story. She will tell the truth and nothing more or nothing less too. Telling the truth is what she promises in that sentence that is what the whole novel is about. That sentence is what embodies the entire novel. No lies, no omissions, so in this novel it will be the truth about Micah, and nothing less.
