It has been awhile since I had posted a book review on the book that I was reading hadn't it? Sometimes I do go through a spurt as where I lose interest in the genera of books that I am reading and that I need to switch it up and I had the hardest time deciding what that should be until I watched a documentary of the making of the ABC family's Tv series Pretty Little Liars and the author Sara Shepard said that it was going the tv producers are doing things differently as far as the mystery, thriller, ect and I thought what the heck I am going to start and I read it in 9 days which is really fast for it usually takes a good two weeks to a month to get through a book. But then again it also depends on the length of it and what is going on. Ok enough chitter chatter.
OVERVIEW
Gossip thrives amid the Mercedes-Benzes mega mansions, and perfectly manicured hedges in the exclusive town of Rosewood Pennsylvania. Behind their big Gucci sunglasses, beneath their perfectly pressed polos, everyone has something to hide. Especially high school juniors Spencer, Aria, Emily, and Hannah. Spencer covets her sister's gorgeous new boyfriend, Aria is having an affair with her English teacher. Emily is infatuated with the new girl in school, and Hannah is using some ugly tricks to stay beautiful. Deeper and darker still is a horrible secret have shared since sixth grade, a secret that they thought was safe forever.
MY THOUGHTS
I loved this book because it kept me wondering about each of the characters and what was going to happen to them. Yes they throw some wicked curve balls at you as far as the differences from the show. Many of the characters have different physical traits then the TV series but the personalities were there. I however wouldn't recommend this book to a preteen such as 10 or 12 and I must admit there is a lot of drinking and cussing, and just really advanced behavior such as even bulimia. It is a teenage desperate housewives but heck if you are 16, 18, maybe looking for a good thriller mystery to start in high school or even when you are 25 like me give it a try. It will leave you hanging :-). I already purchased book 2.
Well better get going. Need to take a shower. :-)
