oh my god. i think this is my favorite book of the series so far. it was so fast paced and kept me on the edge of my seat the whole time - especially the last 50 or so pages. the plot twists had me absolutely shocked, which hasn’t really happened in the other books as much. truly such a fun reading experience - such easy reads and i love how different it is from the show, which helps keep me on the edge of my seat. i can’t wait to see how this whole story finally ends!

Finally! 14 out of 16 finished. Only 2 to go. I'm getting closer and closer to the end, and I can't wait to finish this series.

I have to admit that parts of the book were intriguing to me. It was just nice that there were finally some consequences for the girls and their actions. But I can't fully enjoy the book because there are just too many coincidences and the girls are too lucky sometimes. It becomes too unrealistic.

I also hate that thing that often happens in movies, series, books, etc. where the heroes have found the villain and then the villain reveals everything. Especially when it's obvious what happened. We get it. He was the (co-)villain all along.

"If you don't like the books, why do you keep reading them?" Mind your own business! I can't help but finish the series. I want to know how it ends, even if I'm disappointed.

2/18/13 Ladies and Gentlemen, IT HAS A COVER. Not the best one, but beautiful color. Gotta love green.

3/28/13 It no longer has a cover and has changed from Betrayed to Deadly. GREEAAT. :/

6/7/13 Just finished Crushed and am really excited to read this one. Hopefully it's the last one, even though I don't want it to end. Does that make since? I'm ready to find out who A is. Sara, it's time. NOW GIMME THIS BOOK!
