This series is one of my many guilty pleasures. That being said, this book was only just okay. The last few books haven't been the strongest and I think it is obvious that Shepard is just trying to fill her obligations as to the number of books she has to write under contract. The books are becoming really far-fetched and repetitive. It's probably for the best that there is only one book left in the series.

What can I say? I'm a sucker for cheesy teenage melodrama. These books are complete and utter fluff, but I devoured this book. There's not a lot to distinguish one among the others, but I enjoy reading every single one.

Well things are really heating up in Rosewood! This instalment did have me hooked but I am left wondering where the ending will come because I recently discovered there’s more books than I thought! I think the friendship between the girls is starting to grow more than it had done in previous instalments so I am sort of excited to start the next one!

More of the same, so I can't complain about the formulaic approach.
In this instalment we see Emily facing up to her secret baby, and the other girls are all facing a personal demon of some description. There's yet another candidate for A, which makes little sense, and the girls spend a lot of time running round doing stupid things to try and stave off the rather inevitable downfall when their secret comes out.
These girls are more than a little unlucky, but they really do seem to bring a lot of it on themselves. Handy that their new demon in this is connected to Tabitha.
Perhaps the most interesting part in this was the introduction of Reefer. I kind of hope we see more of him.

I feel like the more books she writes, the more far fetched the drama gets but they are such easy reads and i of course want to know what happens.

SO I love the story Sara Shepard has spun between these girls and their personal stalker. You get to know each individual character as the series progresses.
Shepard does a fantastic job of throwing in twists and turns you never see coming, but no matter how many issues and plots are going on in one book, they all get solved at one point or another.
This book is one of those in between books. It was good. Don't get me wrong. Aria, Spencer, Hanna, and Emily all have their individual problems and their big problem with A. I was a little disappointed with the lack of interaction from Spencer. She was so distant in this book. I felt it kind of focused too much on Hanna and more on Emily. But I guess at this point, their stories are alittle bigger. I LOVED IT EITHER WAY.

I didn't like this one much.. I feel like the series should have ended after number 8.. Oh well, onto number 12!

The beginning of this was pretty slow and it didn't pick up until about a third of the way in for me, but then it got really good and was hard to put down.
