Book Description
I had a life anyone would kill for.
Then someone did.
The worst part of being dead is that there’s nothing left to live for. No more kisses. No more secrets. No more gossip. It’s enough to kill a girl all over again. But I’m about to get something no one else does—an encore performance, thanks to Emma, the long-lost twin sister I never even got to meet.
Now Emma’s desperate to know what happened to me. And the only way to figure it out is to be me—to slip into my old life and piece it all together. But can she laugh at inside jokes with my best friends? Convince my boyfriend she’s the girl he fell in love with? Pretend to be a happy, carefree daughter when she hugs my parents good night? And can she keep up the charade, even after she realizes my murderer is watching her every move?
From Sara Shepard, the #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Pretty Little Liars books, comes a riveting new series about secrets, lies, and killer consequences.
Let the lying game begin.

The Lying Game,
By
This review is from: The Lying Game (Hardcover)
The Lying Game is an exciting read with a lot of plot twists and turns. Readers who enjoy mysteries and fast-paced plots will enjoy this new series by Shepard. The characters are of the `mean girl' variety which some might find makes the book seem a little shallow. Despite this I enjoyed the characters, especially the duality in voice (both Sutton and Emma narrate). Having Emma find out the truth about her sister at the same time that Sutton begins to realize the type of person she was did add an interesting dynamic to the story. Another series to love.

The Lying Game!,
This review is from: The Lying Game (Hardcover)
As a long time fan of Sara Shapard's Pretty Little Liars; I decided to check out The Lying Game. I was slightly skeptical if this book would life up to the quatily of Pretty Little Liars, but as it turned out, The Lying Game is just as fabulous as PLL if not better! I find it remarkable how the author can continue to produce incredible books with astonishing qualtity like this one with out constant repetition throughout the plot. I'm extremely syched about the upcoming books in this series! Way to go, Sara!

This review is from: The Lying Game (Hardcover)
Sutton Mercer has it all. She's the popular "It" girl at Hollier High. She's got the hot boyfriend. She's co-captain of the tennis team. And, oh yeah, she's dead. Somehow, her spirit has managed to find Emma, her long-lost identical twin sister. Emma doesn't know Sutton is there, but somehow they are connected.Emma Paxton doesn't know anything about Sutton, either. At least not until creepy Travis, the son of her foster mom, shows her a snuff video on the Internet starring someone who looks identical to Emma. Emma has to find out the truth about Sutton. Did someone die in that video? Does Emma have an identical twin that Becky never told her about? With one seemingly innocent Facebook message, Emma's life turns into one dangerous mystery after another. Sutton never shows up to their meeting place, and Emma, being mistaken for Sutton, is dragged to a party by Sutton's friends. Emma tries telling Sutton's family and even the cops that she is not Sutton, all to no avail. When Emma receives a mysterious note saying "Sutton's dead. Tell no one. Keep playing along...or you're next," she realizes that this is no longer a game, and her life depends on her finding out who killed Sutton. Sutton Mercer is dead. Trust me, this is no secret. The reader learns this on page four of the novel. Now you're thinking, "I've read this before." Nope, don't go into THE LYING GAME thinking it's just a rip-off of the PRETTY LITTLE LIARS theme. Yes, there is a murder. Yes, there is a mystery. Yes, you will keep wondering who is behind everything. But from there, THE LYING GAME goes in a far more sinister direction. Be warned: you won't want to put it down once you start it. Everyone is a possible suspect, and nothing is resolved. I was addicted to the PRETTY LITTLE LIARS series, and now I see that I am going to be equally obsessed with THE LYING GAME. There is so much that has to be answered that I know I'm going to be eagerly awaiting each new installment of this series now, too! Reviewed by: Jaglvr
