3.5I like this a tad bit more than I liked [b:We Were Liars 16143347 We Were Liars E. Lockhart https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1402749479l/16143347.SY75.jpg 21975829]. It felt like it would be a 4-4.25 star while reading, but there was a twist in the last few chapters, (the one which revealed that it was actually Carrie who killed Pfeff and not Bess) which made me lower my rating to a 3.5.Overall an enjoyable, fast paced read which is perfect for the summer:)
Family of Liars was a lot easier to get into than We Were Liars was. I thoroughly enjoyed this story, and getting to learn more about the sisters was really interesting. The fairytale metaphors made little sense to me, but every other aspect of the story was very engaging. The ending was not as sad at the ending to We Were Liars, but it was very interesting and surprised me. Despite Family of Liars being a prequel, it should 100% be read AFTER We Were Liars as the first few pages alone spoil the ending to We Were Liars!
ngl kinda excited to read about fucked up family drama without the predictable plot twist bullshit
