better than some of the other recent volumes...but still no closure. END IT.

Sara Shepard is putting SOMETHING in these books

I love this series so much. This was such a wonderful addition. It had be on the edge of my seat throughout the entire book. Can't wait for Toxic!!!!

Finally caught up. It was ok. Didn't expect helper A to be who it was though.

I just want this series to be over all ready. Is that too much to ask?

Great god! Can you believe there's a 14th PLL book? Yeah? Well, can you believe there's another one coming out next year? I know, it's the series that never ends.

(Review from 2013)

** spoiler alert ** This book series mess me up badly. I just finished this and my mind is still reeling.

I marked this as 'currently reading' two days ago, because that's when I finished reading my last book, but I didn't actually start reading it before today, so I read it in a day, which seems to be a habit with me and Sara Shepard books.

So what did I think about it? It was pretty awesome. I can't decide if I loved the twist or absolutely hated it. It wasn't obvious, but I would've liked it so much more if it had been Mike. I know I said it would've hurt a lot and it would've, but it would make so much sense. He's always around. Iceland, Jamaica, the cruise. Always. So I'm almost disappointed it wasn't him, but I'm also glad because I like Mike and want him to be happy.

The writing was good, or as good as can be expected in these books, I guess I should say.

The characters were interesting and fun and I really liked that there was a lesser focus on romance-drama than it usually was. (And I loved all the Noel/Aria, perfectly heartbreaking and heartwarming, swoooon <3). It get's really gritty in Deadly, (view spoiler). Considering the situation they get put in, it's really no wonder.

Hopefully the next two books will be the last, because I need to see how they capture Ali. I want her dead ASAP.
