Pretty Little Liars, by Sara Shepard

Pretty Little Liars by Sara Shepard is the first in the amazing series. Alison DiLaurentis is Rosewood's prettiest, most popular girl. And let's not forget her clique of Spencer Hastings, Aria Montgomery, Hanna Marin, and Emily Fields. But right before eighth grade, Ali disappears only to have her body be found three years later under cement in her old house. Since the disappearance, the other four girls have drifted apart, but are reunited by Ali's finding. The girls all suddenly start receiving texts from an unknown person who calls himself "A". "A" knows all of their old secrets along with stuff that is going on now. What are the girls going to do? Will they discover who "A" is?

To be honest, the only reason I started reading this series was because I had fallen in LOVE with the television series. Sara Shepard had a great idea, and she wrote it down with spectacular skill. I would recommend this book to all teen girls because they will be able to relate to the girls' points of view and will be more interested in the book.

I first heard about this series because of the show, and since then I have been trying to find the books. And now that I have found it, this book is just... wow. I am hooked, I can't wait to continue the series. The book is so descriptive and well written. You can connect to every character in the book even though they are all different. You get a sense of what it's like to live in Rosewood and how people are there. I would recommend this book everybody, but mostly to teenage girls, especially if they like suspense, mystery, and secrets.

After having a sleepover as a friend group one of them happens to sneak off a never come back. Her name is Alison DiLaurentes and after that sleepover, everyone goes their paths. This missing 16-six-year-old girl never gets found and the rest of the friend groups all part ways because the sorrow becomes too much to cope all altogether. Alison was the leader of the group and she was the reason everyone was friends in the first place, it was as if they were her dolls being controlled.

I would really recommend this book to people in middle school who want a change in genre and a new plot. I got hooked on the series because I became connected with all the characters because of how relatable each of them was. While their high school experiences in the book were very scary and not similar to mine I found this to be a distraction I could go to from my own life. There are a lot of characters and chaos that goes on in this book so I would recommend having a cleared-out mind before.
