DNF after chapter 10 as the writing style was tedious and there was nothing to hold (or even pique) my interest even a little (  )1   bellac89 | Jul 29, 2023 |  Um... hmm. Very little plot. Very little characterization. Annoying prose. Curiosity will always defeat my respect for my own time, so I stuck with this one so I could find out about the bIg TwIsT eNdInG. Lesson learned, not every book that is popular on TikTok lives up to the hype. (  )1 annikaleigh89 | Jul 26, 2023 | An excellent YA novel with a twist you won't see coming (  ) leahorr | Jul 9, 2023 | Can't give any spoilers. (  ) pollycallahan | Jul 1, 2023 | 3.5 plot twist was great but the whole book was kinda boring ?but it was a fast read and i also appreciate the important stuff in it (  ) chardenlover | Jun 14, 2023 |
 Of course I won't reveal the twists and turns of the cunning plot, but I can say that when the secret at the heart of the book is finally revealed, it turns out to be nastier and more shocking than anything I had imagined. This is a cunning, clever and absolutely gripping novel, full of surprises, which sent me straight back to its first page as soon as I reached the last. What really makes a book of the summer is when we surprise ourselves. It’s not just about being fascinated by a book. It’s about being fascinated by the fact that we’re fascinated. The odds:4-1 We Were Liars E. Lockhart Pros: Rich people on an island; sharp, funny-sad writing; a head-snapping fourthquarter reveal. Cons: It’s a YA novel, so some adults might pass.
