At first I was not completely into it, the 9 characters were. A lot. But once I got used to it, I was reading and I couldn't stop. I was audibly gasping. The kind of open end .. oh man, guess I have to read the next book?

I enjoyed it, but it wasn't as good as the previous books in the series. I felt there were gaps in the logic that left the unraveling of the mystery less satisfying. Also was annoyed with Stevie's action at one point. 

Took me two years to finish because I was so irritated with Stevie but that ending was so worth it. I’m a David hater till I die,

david you idiot

Nine liars were nine too many. Didn't care for the mystery, couldn't keep all the bland nine characters apart and all the personal teenage drama took way too much focus. Too bad, really liked the series starting out

Another great Stevie Bell mystery. The ending has nothing to do with the overall mystery (no spoilers), so with that being said… WHAT?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

I NEED ANOTHER BOOK TO EXPLAIN THE REASON WHY I’M ON THE FLOOR AFTER HAVING THE RUG PULLED OUT FROM UNDERNEATH ME!!!!!!

This book was a little disappointing compared to the rest of the series. It was sooooooooo slow for one thing, and I definitely didn’t get enough Nate time. The mystery, as always, was brilliant. David and Stevie, as always, were infuriating. Stevie was extra annoying in this book, and it was all David related. BUT it was intriguing and I still finished in two days :)
