Pretty girls don't
play by the rules.
They make them.

Abandoned by her mother at age five, Emma Paxton has had a rough life in foster care, always longing for a familyu of her own. When she discovers Sutton Mercer, the wealthy twin she never knew she had, she leaps at the chance to meet her. But then Sutton disappears...

Mistaking Emma for her sister, Sutton's friends whisk her away. At first Emma plays along, eager to peek into her twin's life. Sutton seems to have everything Emma never got--an adoring boyfriend, fiercely loyal friends, and a close-knit family--but as Emma is drawn further into Sutton's world, she find that everyone is hiding dark secrets. Worst of all, Sutton may not be coming back--ever.

Now, to find out what happened to her, Emma must kepp up the charade. But one wrong move and she could end up missing as well.

Let the Lying Game begin.

==I liked the story. It was nice to move away from the occult books. The style of writing the author has to offer is very refreshing. Who doesn't love a good mystery? I, of course, love Ethan. The voiolence in this book is just enough to get the point across. I was actually shocked at first that they would add something like this in a YA book. The author makes you actually feel the necklace around her throat. Every episode of fear is so real with this character.

The only bad thing, is that after I read this book, I watched the TV version of this book series. I didn't like it, and now it messed up my memory of the book. I need to remember to write the review of the book BEFORE seeing any other version, movie or TV. =(
