My friends and I used to play lying games. Now my twin sister is living one.
When I was alive, my family seemed picture-perfect. My adoptive parents adored me, and my little sister, Laurel, copied my every move. But now that my long-lost twin, Emma, has taken my place to solve my murder, we're both learning just how flawed my family really is. Laurel is shooting Emma nasty looks and sneaking around with my ex-boyfriend. And it turns out my parents are keeping a huge secret-could it be the reason I'm dead?
How far would they go to keep the truth buried? No one can harm me now, but Emma is still fair game. And if she's not careful, she'll end up buried, too. From Sara Shepard, the #1 "New York Times" bestselling author of the Pretty Little Liars books, comes a riveting series about secrets, lies, and killer consequences.

*************************************************************
Another great installment in the Lying Game series! These books and the Pretty Little Liars series are like some sort of drug. I can't stop reading them. They are addicting! I love Sara Shepard's writing style. It is easy and quick to read, but at the same time feel like you are really exploring the characters and plot. I love that. Hide and Seek had a lot more action and questions answered than the previous book did. Two Truths and a Lie was definitely a filler book for this. I like how each book focuses on a different suspect. This book is all about Mr. Mercer. Do not read ahead if you haven't read this series! I am going to mention spoilers in the next two paragraphs!
There is one heck of a crazy revelation at the end that I was not expecting at all, which I loved! I can usually predict these books pretty well. I still think that Ethan is the killer. It just makes the most sense. I listed the reasons why in my previous review and those reasons still haven't changed. I think that Sutton has some past with Ethan that she just can't remember.
The next book is going to be all about Becky. Sutton and Emma's real mother. This should make for an interesting story, even though I know she isn't the killer. I am still excited for it! I can't wait to continue on with the series.
