Knew this was going to be terrible when I heard about it, read it anyway, and it met my expectations. Really annoying and bad characters, terrible names, boring overall.

This was good. I really didn’t know what to expect when I went into this but I enjoyed it. The writing style is odd like we were  liars were, but after a while you just get used to how it’s written. I honestly really like the main character and she did nothing wrong I mean she did but I forgive her. This also made me tear up at the end. I think if you enjoyed we were liars you should pick this up.

great book! loved seeing how cadence’s mom and aunts lives during their teenage years.

both the first and second plot twists (harris not being carrie’s biological father and pfeff dying) were predictable to me but i still enjoyed reading them. however, i did not expect the third one (carrie actually being pfeff’s killer).
