About this author

Eileen Cook spent most of her teen years wishing she were someone else or somewhere else, which is great training for a writer.

You can read more about Eileen, her books, and the things that strike her as funny at www.eileencook.com. Eileen lives in Vancouver with her husband and two dogs and no longer wishes to be anyone or anywhere else.

The Almost Truth by Eileen Cook
" SUCH A GOOD BOOK!

I have never read a book by Eileen Cook before, so this is my first. I am very impressed and will read more by her.

The whole story kept me guessing. I couldn't decide what was going to happen. This book keeps you on your toes, whi... " Read more of this review »

I really enjoyed the almost truth. I liked it so much more than I thought I would! There were only a couple small nit-picky things that kept me from giving this book five stars but I'll get to that l... " Read more of this review »

“It is a truth universally acknowledged that if you do something embarrassing like fall down the stairs in front of a group of people, you are required to act like you are fine, even if you aren't. Your arm could have a bone jutting out, and you would still try to laugh it off as if everything were hunky dory. This compound fracture? It's nothing! I like to let my bones out of my body once in a while for fresh air. It's good for them.
Eileen Cook, The Education of Hailey Kendrick

“Why is being an unmarried woman something that we should be ashamed of, as if we’ve failed? Men don’t feel this way. When they haven’t married, they make it sound like they’ve gotten away with something. Their single status makes them even more appealing to the other sex.”
Eileen Cook, Unpredictable

“Tell me the truth. When you were a kid, did you always color inside the lines?”
"Coloring in the lines is the whole point. That’s why they have lines,” I said.
“That’s where you’re wrong. The lines are there just to hold you in. Like a prison. Think what you might have created if there hadn’t been any lines.”
Eileen Cook, The Education of Hailey Kendrick
