We Were Liars by E. Lockhart

janagaton's review

3.0

I read this book twice: once for fun and once for class. I enjoyed it a lot more the second time because for some reason, I was just unable to follow the storyline the first time. Once I was able to discuss the book with peers and my professor, I was able to wrap my head around the fact that some confusing parts were only confusing because they were the main character's hallucinations, and I didn't get that the first time around. The plot twist reminded me a lot of The Unbecoming of Mara Dyer by Michelle Hodkin, which I absolutely loved, hence only 3/5 stars for We Were Liars because it didn't top the Mara Dyer series for me.

The way this book is structured is kinda hit or miss, but the story itself is very good. Towards the end I already had an idea of what was going to happen, but it didn't take away from the actual ending for me. I like the way the reveal was done. Also...damn that's sad. Teenagers really don't think everything through, but I guess the adults learned a lesson...omg and the dogs

Bon……. J’ai commencé à aimé à partir de la 3ème partie donc faut vraiment s’accrocher quoi mais ensuite ça s’est tellement accéléré et j’étais vraiment dedans.
Le plot twist est vraiment cool et franchement c’était unpredictable donc vraiment pas mal.
Juste dommage pour le faux départ
