I loved being back in the Truly Devious world even though I didn't find the mystery of Nine Liars as gripping as some of those in earlier installments. Stevie and her friends' drastically different approaches to handling the pressure of senior year reminded me a lot of my own experiences. This was a really great way to get to know these characters on an even deeper level. I was completely blindsided by
David breaking up with Stevie, which is a cliffhanger I need answers to desperately
.

Nine Liars was a solid read and I will happily read Truly Devious books as long as Maureen Johnson wants to write them.
