I was not a fan of the majority of the book. I didn't like cady and just got annoyed when she would talk, but they really had me with that ending.

So surprisingly sad (i cried). When she's just describing all of the liars hopes and dreams before she killed them is so freaking sad.

The first half of the book I had no clue what was going on or what the plot was. But around halfway I got it and I couldn't put it down. The ending was unexpected, not sure if I liked it but it was good
