Another addition to this series. I like that it's similar to the JR Ward format in that each book introduces a new couple and their story

I was really excited for this book because I LOVE Cian's youtube video series about his life with Emily. However the book was a waste of money and time as it wasn't very funny at all.

This entire book gives a real sense what it was like to live in the 60s and it has a bit if everything killing love loss mystery murder I would highly recommend this book to anyone I have read the book listened to the audio and watched the series
  
I really like Fern Michael's. I am listening to the sisterhood series. I just finished book 3 Vendetta, book 4 The Jury, book 5 Sweet Revenge, and book 6 Lethal Justice. Fern Michaels is one of my favorite authors so these are a 10 out of 10 and are going on my shelf to enjoy on another day.

I was really excited to start this because it is a universally known fact that the book is always better than the film or TV adaptation. I don’t think that rule applies to Pretty Little Liars.


I definitely feel that the series is much better than the books. The series is always gripping, gives plenty of time for the plot to develop, and has likeable characters. I was addicted to it for a year of binging.

I had a few issues with the book.

If I had read the book before watching the series, I wouldn’t have gone onto Netflix and binged on it. I feel like the book was too small and the plot was too condensed. This made the characters very two-dimensional.

The characters in the book are also all unlikable. They are all really bratty and spoiled and they really annoyed me. The creators of the series completely changed them for the good.

It is still getting two stars because I did manage to finish the book. I was just really disappointed that it wasn’t any better.

i jumped into this series at book 3. not many important spoilers. but then i jumped from book 3 to this one. BAD idea. HUGE spoiler. it's kind of ruined the beginning of the series for me. instead of enjoying the storyline and going with the flow i'm analyzing character actions.
besides the disappointment of knowing too much, it was still entertaining, though not my favorite.

This book is freaking AMAZING. Lisa Renee Jones grabs you by the heart strings and brings your deepest darkest fantasies to light in this series, and I am definitely looking forward to reading more of her books. If you don't like cliffhangers, wait until the entire series is out, because you will scream, cuss, and go insane until you get the next book to read it

I am totally loving this series by Nicole Pyland. The characters are engaging and the plot moves well. I will recommend that you read #0 and #1 in the Chicago Series before reading this book. It can stand alone but is so much better when you know all of it, especially to understand the relationship at the center of the story. Looking forward to book #3.
  
The conclusion to the Sisters Grimm series finds Sabrina and Daphne leading the good guys in a fight to take out The Master once and for all. Can they succeed? The book is dark at times, but we are fighting a war here. Fans of the series will certainly enjoy seeing how it ends, although if you aren't familiar with the series, start at the beginning.
