Killer By Sara Shepard

OH MY GOD. WITHOUT A DOUBT, ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS I HAVE EVER READ. (Sorry, typing in caps felt more expressive.) Okay, I don't know what book this is in the series of Pretty Little Liars, but everything still made sense to me. I absolutely enjoyed reading every page of it and I definitely stayed up til midnight reading it. An amazing, mystery novel that caught my eye, certainly worth the read. The ending left me hanging, which for sure made me want to continue reading the series.
So Hanna, Emily, Spencer, and Aria are receiving threatening and mysterious text messages from someone called A. The old A is dead now, but a new A has taken her place. The story starts off with the four teens discovering a dead body in the woods of their friend, Ian. They immediately went to find the police, except when they reached the location where Ian's body was first found, it surprisingly disappeared. The police force are doing a terrible job of believing the girls and trying to find Ian's body or any traces of evidence in the woods. Now the girls are being accused of lying and making up a story of seeing the body, but they knew he was for sure dead...was he? As the story proceeds, the girls get caught up with guy relationships and family issues that they start to lose focus in the whole situation.        
The furtive and covert messages they are receiving from A seems to be leading them to find Ali's real killer and the truth...or is it just another plot to make them think they are going the right way when they are just being lured into another trap that may ruin their lives forever? Filled with suspense and apprehension, this book is for sure going to keep you up all night pondering and questioning about the events that mysteriously happened in the story.
The novel is super descriptive with strong vocabulary that creates a vivid image in the readers head as they are captivated and allured into reading more and more. This is a must read and anyone would enjoy it, I'm sure of it. Rating: 1000000000000000000000000000000000000000000/10. Believe me, this is worth your time or I wouldn't be sitting here writing a review on how good it is.

Summary on www.goodreads.com:
"In picture-perfect Rosewood, Pennsylvania, ash-blond highlights gleam in the winter sun and frozen lakes sparkle like Swarovski crystals. But pictures often lie— and so do Rosewood's four prettiest girls. 
Hanna, Aria, Spencer, and Emily have been lying ever since they became friends with beautiful Alison DiLaurentis. Ali made them do terrible things—things they had to keep secret for years. And even though Ali was killed at the end of seventh grade, their bad-girl ways didn't die with her. 
Hanna's on a mission to corrupt Rosewood's youth, starting with a very attractive sophomore. Aria's snooping into her boyfriend's past. Spencer's stealing— from her family. And pure little Emily's abstaining from abstinence. 
The girls should be careful, though. They thought they were safe when Ali's killer was arrested and A's true identity was finally revealed. But now there's a new A in town turning up the heat. And this time Rosewood is going to burn."



BTW, props to the cover as usual. If you actually have the novel, at the back of the book is a real person's face that is almost identical to the cover of the doll's face.  XD
