In the exclusive town of Rosewood, Pennsylvania, there were four popular girls who were once BFFs with Alison DiLaurentis; the queen bee of their elite seventh grade group. However, she mysteriously disappeared one night and was never seen again. Each girl was sad over this incident but nonetheless a little bit relieved that their own secrets (which only Alison knew about) would never be mentioned. After three years, they have grown apart from each other; now in 11th grade, Spencer is coveting her sister’s boyfriend, Aria is having an affair with her teacher, Emily is attracted to a new female friend, and Hanna makes herself throw up to stay skinny and popular. When they started receiving threatening messages from “A” which brought up their past secrets, the girls are sure that Alison was back. But this is not something to celebrate over for, with their dirty little secretes uncovered, it could very well destroy them.

At first glance, this just might be another chick-lit because of the cover (Barbie dolls, haha), but don’t get fooled by it! It turns out to be quite a page turner involving mystery and murder. Unfortunately, readers will be left with a cliff-hanger as the ending, but no worries, it has a sequel.
