I didn’t know this was coming until I saw it on the shelf one day. What an exciting day that was!

We Were Liars became one of my favorite books from the moment I picked it up & to get this story years later has been a gift. 

I loved going back to the island, yet getting to know it in a different form.

I loved diving back into the E.L. writing style that felt unique to WWL.

I loved this book almost as much as I loved We Were Liars. I was really impressed by the author's ability to tell a story just as captivating as the previous book, in a prequel no less. I would definitely recommend this book BUT I recommend reading the other book first because this book will spoil We Were Liars.

e lockhart is one of my favorite authors but when one of her books is a miss for me, it’s a huge miss. I loved we were liars when it came out while I was in high school and I reread it a couple of summers ago and thoroughly enjoyed it. but i barely finished this one. it had a lot of the components of we were liars but they all fell flat. huge meh.
