Review---The Lying Game by Sara Shepard




How would you feel if a prank you planned went wrong? If it became totally dangerous without you realizing that?
The Lying Game by Sara Shepard is about two twin sisters- Emma and Sutton. One dead and one alive. One who lived her life very lavishly and got everything she ever asked for, while the other who got kicked out of foster homes again and again. The author plays the part of Sutton, the dead twin, who is always watching over Emma. Unable to speak to Emma or protect her when required, Sutton follows her around in her spirit form. The problem here is that, Sutton doesn’t remember anything (who killed here, how she died, who are her friends and family etc), she just regains bits of her memory from following Emma around and by Emma’s actions. In search of her twin sisters murderer, Emma reaches Arizona  and pretends to be Sutton among Sutton’s friends and family (who haven’t yet realized that the real Sutton is missing). Will she succeed in finding the murderer? Or will she end up like Sutton? READ THE LYING GAME TO FIND OUT.
The important characters in the book other than sweet Emma and sassy Sutton are Sutton’s friends- Madeline, Charlotte, Lillian, Gabriella and Garrett (boyfriend)- and sister Laurel( who is really creepy). There’s not much I can write about the character’s without giving away the whole story.
I personally liked the book. It was a good read. But it was a little disappointing in the end when it left off as a big QUESTION MARK. A lot of my questions were left unanswered.
Maybe the second book in the series will satisfy me. That is just my opinion. Anyway overall it was fun to read the book. I’m waiting for the 2nd book to come out.
What did you think of the book or the review? Don’t forget to comment.
Thank You.
