Heartless-Sara Shepard

     After I finished Killer, I started the next book in the Pretty Little Liars series, Heartless. I also finished this book so I will be responding to the best and worst qualities of the main character, but in the PLL series, there are 4 main characters.  In the books, each chapter is told from each girl's point of view. Fortunately, in Heartelss, their worst qualities are pretty much the same, as are their best.
     In Heartless, the girl's are trying to figure out things by themselves. No one else knows that A is contacting them but A is giving each girl vital information that is leading them all to a different person that is supposedly "Alli's Killer". This is where their worst quality comes into play. Each girl does exactly what A says and follows A's instructions, although A has tricked them so many times and even tried to kill Hanna.  All of this is saying that the girl's are so eager and interested to find out what and who killed Alli, that they will even trust their own enemy. Their worst quality is their bad judgement! Why would you trust somebody who tried to kill you or your best friend?
     Although the girls have bad judgement, they do have some good qualitites. Each girl is quick to think to conclusions.  This can be good and bad, considering they are still following A's instructions, but they don't just believe everything A says, they do some digging and really put thought into what A says. The girls aren't super quick to jump into things, they still know that A is dangerous, so they do take some precutions. 
     In the end, each girl finds out all the information that A was leading them to, but none of the girls know who Alli's killer is, although they believed that, that was what A was leading them to. In the very last chapter, the police find Alli's Killer, or who they think is Alli's Killer. So, who do you think killed Alli?

Killer-Sara Shepard

     I started my reading for blogging by finishing the book I was reading at the time, which was Killer by  Sara Shepard, the 6th book in the Pretty Little Liars series. Shepard stirred up all kinds of suspense throughout the book. This suspense was completely effective and helped tremendously towards the book.
     With the new "A" dead and no one to threaten the 4 girls of Rosewood , they have no more worries . When they start receiving notes from  A again, they suspect that it is Alli's alleged killer, Ian, who escaped house arrest and is missing. They start new suspicions of possible  people who could be A after Ian contacts Spencer and gives her some new information about her family and who could've killed Alli,, and most importantly, who could be A. The very last chapters are the most suspense filled when Ian gives the girls extremely important information and suddenly the woods and barn the girls are in go up in flames.  If I told you the end, it would be a complete spoiler, so I'll leave with this question. Do you think the girls will escape the burning barn and woods?
