When I died two months ago, my killer told my twin sister to become me—or else. Now Emma has it down to a T. She tosses her hair with the signature Sutton Mercer flip and can lead a Lying Game prank with the best of them. She’s even repairing my relationship with my adoptive family. The only thing she hasn’t done is solve my murder.
Then our birth mother, the woman who abandoned us, showed up in Tucson. Emma hasn’t seen Becky in twelve years, but Becky recognizes Emma immediately—as Emma. Is it a mother’s intuition . . . or does Becky know I’m already gone?
So even though I haven't reviewed them all, I have read all of the Lying Games series so far. I have to give Shepard credit for one thing: she knows how to write series that will make you want to come back for more. I wouldn't be this far into a series I absolutely hated or couldn't care less about, right?
On the other hand, at this point, I feel like the mystery and the logic being used on Emma's part is a little... not there? I won't spoil anything for this book since the entire point of the series is the mystery, but something happens near the end that's a little too convenient for any normal person to ignore, and yet Emma does. I certainly wouldn't want to leave my life in her hands!
As a final note, I realized that this is the kind of series that would SUCK to read after the fact. As in, y'know, it's finished and all the books are out. I say this because there has literally been at least one new suspect every single book, so someone reading early in the series who knows how many books there are in it will lose a bit of the suspense about it all.
