Tell Me If You're Lying

Growing up in an eccentric North Carolina home, with aging-hippie parents whose marriage was forever crumbling around her, author Sarah Sweeney was primed for trouble. For drugs and boys. For learning about sexuality from Madonna videos and prank calling teachers and meeting celebrities — including a young Adrian Grenier. For a father’s supposed alien abduction. For escaping the South and even her own family.

Funny, exuberant, and often heartbreaking, Tell Me If You’re Lying examines the lies we’re told as children and the downright unbelievable — but true — stories that comprise Sweeney’s colorful coming-of-age.
