Hannah's Reviews > Burned

A typical trashy Pretty Little Liars book, where I yell at the characters for their stupidity throughout the entire thing. I sort of hate these books for being so awful, but then I need to know how it all ends, too, and so I keep reading. And, let's be honest, it's a nice little break, so read something so easy and titillating. The girls are on a cruise this time, but the book still follows the formula of the previous ones: They suspect someone who is slightly suspicious, put all their eggs in one basket, and turn up with nothing, in even worse shape than before. Sure, I'm getting tired of this process, because I know it'll end up with no more leads and one big reveal at the end to make me want to buy the next. I wish Shepard would switch up her formula a bit and get me guessing again, because at this point, I know, without a doubt, that who the girls suspect is never actually going to be A. I would be lying if I said I won't read the next one, but I'll also still stick to borrowing the book from a friend so I don't actually have to pay for something that is vastly below my reading level. (Who else do I have to blame but myself?)
