We are the Liars.

We are beautiful, privileged and live a life of carefree luxury.

We are cracked and broken.

A story of love and romance.

A tale of tragedy.

Which are lies?

Which is truth?

You decide.

I finally picked this book up. The hype of it consumed me. I was so thrilled to finally get my hands on this book. I was not as thrilled when I finished the book.

Everyone has said what an amazing book this is. I can see how one would think that and I can appreciate those who do say it’s a great book. I just don’t think it is.

I figured out the twist at the beginning of the book. Which was kind of disappointing. I thought it would have been harder to figure out what was really going on on the Sinclair island. I thought it was going to be something more.

It is a tragedy, yes. But I don’t think it was enough. I don’t want to go too much into it because I don’t want to spoil the twist to anyone who hasn’t read this book.

I really liked the idea that you go into this book with little knowledge of what it’s really about. I just wish there was more!!!
