I was fairly entertained by the first Lying Game book when I found a used copy last year in Tokyo. Sara Shepard's books compel you to read the next one in hopes of finding out what is really happening. The Lying Game follows almost the exact same formula as Pretty Little Liars, but it's not a character crossover. Unsolved murder, group of affluent snobby girls, an unhealthy obsession with secrets and lies, and crushes. This time against the backdrop of the southwest. Oh, and in this case with twins. One twin has been murdered and hangs around like a ghost/narrator, and the other is Patty Duking the situation as she assumes her twin's life and tries to find out what happened.
