Those girls should've gone to the police a looong time ago!
I can't wrapped my head around the idea that the FBI couldn't get hold of a deranged teenage girl, is it possible for her to be that smart?!
Although I applaud that revelation of Team A, better than knowing that Alison had a secret twin all along, I'm annoyed because it's practically impossible for the reader to guess
-I just can't and refuse to believe a parent would actually believe their child is a murderer until proven, isn't it like mostly a parent instinct to believe the best of their child first?!
P/s: I want to stop reading this series because it clearly have been dragged so long, but there's only two books left....

Spoiler
that Nick is disguised as so many people, well at least it's impossible for me haha. I don't even know his existence in this series because I read Ali's Pretty Little Lies after Vicious.-I just can't and refuse to believe a parent would actually believe their child is a murderer until proven, isn't it like mostly a parent instinct to believe the best of their child first?!

Wow! These books keep getting better and better!
First of all I love Hanna and mikes realationship! They are so cute and I really hope Noel and Aria work things out.
A is nastier than ever but I'm so glad we found out who her helper is! If she really loved him she wouldn't have ratted.
I don't know why A is still keeping up with it but oh well. Just go with it.
I found this book along with the recents very enjoyable. I can't believe this series is coming to an end. -June 2015

So glad the series is finally officially over (hopefully it won't be regenerated with more PLL books). I did enjoy reading about what else Ali/A/the A Team had in store for Emily, Hanna, Aria and Spencer and wondering if Ali would ever be caught and if the truth would ever come out. However, I think books 13-16 dragged it out too long (even if book 16 had all the happy endings for some of the characters).

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!

Mini review:
What I loved:
- This was a complete different style from the previous one, as if the author realized she was killing the story in the previous installment: this book is almost at the same place as Wanted is for me. Perfect story, suspense, thriller. I couldn’t even guess the ending which was crazily amazing!
- The start is perfect. Finally a really good preface! One of the most killing questions we had since Wanted, has finally been answered. The rest of the book is just as good, as it gets scarier by the page.
- The Liars are finally realizing that “A” plans everything! Phew, I thought I’d never see this day come.
- The friendships, the struggles, the romance. Everything in this book is good. That’s why I didn’t regret reading Crushed.
- Oh, and the chapters aren’t as long as they used to be! So we get exactly to the point! *_*
What I hated:
- Absolutely nothing!

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.
