I am particularly drawn to the characters of Dr. Lindsey McCall and Kate Townsend, and the moral and ethical dilemmas they face. The inclusion of Father John and the influence of Catholicism add an intriguing layer to the story. It seems like Wilder has done an excellent job of presenting both sides of the argument, which is crucial for such a nuanced subject.
The fact that the book includes factual pieces and sources at the end is a bonus, as it shows that Wilder has grounded the story in reality, providing a well-rounded view of the issue. I also appreciate that the reviewer found the emotions relatable and the conversations passionate—elements that make a story truly engaging.
The themes and questions posed in the review—about children's rights to choose their gender, the role of educators, and the implications of detransitioning—are highly relevant today. This book seems like it will not only be an interesting read but also a thought-provoking one. I am looking forward to diving into "Plausible Liars" to explore these complex issues myself.

The book has been praised for its handling of sensitive topics such as transgender policies and the role of faith, particularly Catholicism, which is woven into the story through the influence of a character named Father John. This element may appeal to readers interested in faith-based narratives.
However, it’s noted that the book's heavy focus on these controversial subjects might not resonate with all readers, particularly those not open to discussions on transgender ideology or religious themes. Despite this, the novel received high ratings for its engaging and respectful approach to difficult topics.
Overall, "Plausible Liars" is recommended for readers who enjoy medical mysteries with a strong dose of social commentary and are interested in exploring the intersection of medical ethics, religion, and personal identity.
