Heartless (Sara Shepard)

With all of the reporters knocking on the Pretty little liars (Spencer, Emily, Hanna and Aria) doors, it's a miracle they are not all mentally insane...well, except maybe Hanna.

The Pretty Little Liars are all trying to figure out who killed Ali and why/how they "saw" her.

Aria believes Ali's ghost is trying to reach them, so she and Noel are talking to mediums.

Spencer is afraid that it could have been someone in her family who killed Ali, so she is learning all of her family's deepest, darkest secrets.

Hanna's evil step sister told Hanna's dad about how crazy Hanna is, so now she is wear all the crazy people go-a mental institute.

Emily is convinced that the girls really did see Ali and she is still alive.

But it's "A" who is controlling everything. "A" plans to send the Pretty Little Liars on a wild goose chase trying to figure out who Ali's killer is; but all the girls are on totally different paths and none of them are guessing the same person. So what exactly is "A"'s goal?

But its the reporters who are controlling the girl's social lives and all of their futures, and they seem to think the PLL's are heartless friends who killed Ali.

If that’s the end to Ali's murder mystery and "A", I'm going to be disappointed.

The person who the author picked to be the suspected killer and maybe the new "A" was so dumb. They had nothing to do with anything! But I know there are lots more books, so it can't be them.

The person they killed off this book was awesome! The person was totally not expended and it's going to make the T.V show way more interesting.

This book did not have hardly any back stories to the characters because all of them were so obsessed with finding Ali's killer, which was really interesting but annoying. 

Instead, the book was all about plot and suspense. It was awesome in that way, but at the same time, this series is a drama and its characterization that drives a drama.

In all the other books, the characters drive the plot. In this one, the plot drove the characters and made them change. It was really good in that sense. One of the reason's that made the plot go was the conflict's, which were almost all character vs. self.

This was the best one so far...except who the suspected killer is.

4.75 out of 5 stars
