I read about Lies You Wanted to Hear by James Whitfield Thomson in the Cape Cod Times in early February, and it was the perfect February vacation read. The newspaper article was about the author who wrote the novel between the years 2006 and 2011 at a library in Natick. I was intrigued by the description in the Times which called the book "a compelling story of a recognizable but flawed couple, bound by bad choices and devotion to their children that explores the consequences of their of self-deceptions with insight and irony."
