-The characters in this book were very good. I enjoyed how we didn't find out very much about them until the very end. It kept me guessing.
-I really enjoyed the writing style. A lot of people are annoyed by it, but I thought it was perfect for this story. There were points when it got slightly dry but not very many.
-The mystery was a big aspect of [b:We Were Liars|16143347|We Were Liars|E. Lockhart|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1402749479s/16143347.jpg|21975829]. I enjoyed this even though I'm not much of a mystery person. The mystery added depth to the book.

Things I didn't enjoy
-The beginning of this book was kind of slow at first, and it took a while for it to pick up speed. It should have escalated quicker.
