None of This Is True
Three women, one wildly unsettling book, and absolutely no clue about what really happened. In this episode, we dive into None of This Is True—a psychological thriller that blurs the line between truth, manipulation, and obsession. We break down the twists, debate our theories, and argue over which characters we trusted… if any. Expect strong opinions, a little side-eye, and plenty of “wait, but what if—” moments as we try to untangle a story that refuses to sit still. If you like messy characters, unreliable narrators, and conversations that spiral in the best way, this one's for you.
