The only part I particularly enjoyed was Emily being all bad ass at the end. I hate to complain, because Shepard does have a certain talent with writing, but this series has gone on for far too long, and I'm just looking for an end now.

“And she knew, suddenly, and without a doubt, that whatever she did next, she would do it well. And someday, when those bitches weren’t looking, she’d come for them again. But let’s face it: She was impatient. She had a feeling it would be sooner rather than later.
She couldn’t wait.”


OMG I JUST ughghghghhgggh

Am I a really bad person for actually WANTING and NEEDING a 15th book?!?!
My heart slammed against my chest reading the last half, I'm actually convinced I loved THIS more than the original finale. It was just a whole lot more clever and insane; a whole new level.

Yeah, you could do without a lot of the content from books #10 - #12 - in fact while reading the series you just don't even want to pick up those fillers, but don't give up I promise you that it is so worth it when you get to Deadly.

I'm such a horrible person for loving these books. I just can't help it.

Deadly was exactly what I wanted.

Edit (6/18/14):
Well, it was better than the last couple books. My rating is some where between 3.5 and 4 stars.


Please be the end. Please be the end. Please be the end. Please be the end. Please be the end.
It's not that I don't like this series, it's just that it is becoming predictable and frankly, somewhat frustrating. I would love to see this series finally end. It's had a good run, but now it's time to go.

I don't know how she keeps doing it! I can't imagine this story going on any longer. I really want this series to end but I love how Shepard can keep it going. I'm not bored yet. This one finally gave us answers which is good but a little bit rushed I think. And there were definitely parts where I was like "are you serious?". but it was fine. good read. patiently waiting for the next one. (:

From Goodreads:

Deadly, the fourteenth volume in Sara Shepard’s YA Pretty Little Liars series, delivers more juicy scandals, dark secrets, and shocking plot twists. This #1 New York Times bestselling series is also a hit ABC Family original TV show.

High school seniors Aria, Emily, Hanna, and Spencer have all done horrible things—things that would put them behind bars if anyone ever found out. And their stalker “A” knows everything.

So far A has kept their secrets, using them to torture the girls. But now A’s changed the game. Suddenly the girls are hauled in for questioning, and all their worlds begin to unravel. If A’s plan succeeds, Rosewood’s pretty little liars will be locked away for good. . . .


Spoiler alert!

Wow this is book number 14 in the series! I read book 13, Crushed, not long ago and wrote about how the books were totally predictable and formulaic, yet I continued to read and enjoy them.

Well, I think this book did a pretty good job of shaking things up a bit and answering some questions I’ve been asking for a while. For example, the girls finally come clean to the cops and a few friends/family members and seemed to be getting some help, and we got confirmation of the identity of A’s ‘helper’, which actually took me by surprise!

Things were going well for the girls in the first half of the book – too well, it turns out. I loved the twist that they ended up being accused of murdering Tabitha and even arrested and about to be extradited to Jamaica! I wasn’t expecting any of that. Also, they finally came face to face again with…Ali! And she is totally deranged. But it was so satisfying to have them finally see for sure that she was still alive – even if no one else believed them.

I really think this was the best book in the series in a long time, and it had me reading as fast as I possible could, excited to see how it would end. I know there will only be two more books, and that the next one, Toxic, will come out in June.

I have no clue how Sara Shepard will wrap up the series, but with this book, she answered some of the big questions I had, and she has definitely set the stage for an epic showdown. All I can do is wait until the last book comes out and hope for a definitive ending! If it’s open-ended or leaves any question as to Ali’s fate, I think I’ll be frustrated, but I’m trying to prepare myself for any and every possibility!

If you’re still reading this series, I hope you enjoyed this installment as much as I did!
