I think the best part of the book was not knowing what was going to happen next and being surprised at the twists and turns the book takes, and as a reread I don't think it will give you the same emotional punch. <br /><br />Although, in another sense, it might be fun to reread because you'll be able to go back and pick up on some of the clues for the mystery that maybe you didn't originally see.<br /><br />Either way, let me know what you decide on! :D<br /><br />~ Zoe @ <a href="http://www.zoereads.org" rel="nofollow">The Infinite To-Read Shelf</a> Zoe N.https://www.blogger.com/profile/08980248647201093593noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-739878661565443064.post-42273127659643321382014-05-12T14:27:34.557+10:002014-05-12T14:27:34.557+10:00Exactly!

The writing was just so poetic and beautiful, and the characterization was superb. This was quite a hard book to review because, as a reviewer, you want to say as much about it as you can, but you don't want to reveal <i>too</i> much. It's definitely a delicate balance, but I feel you did an amazing job with this review! So glad you loved it as well! <3<br /><br />~ Zoe @ <a href="http://www.zoereads.org" rel="nofollow">The Infinite To-Read Shelf</a> Zoe N.https://www.blogger.com/profile/08980248647201093593noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-739878661565443064.post-40841103181860701512014-05-10T13:42:30.898+10:002014-05-10T13:42:30.898+10:00Jaz, you've definitely piqued my interest!

For some reason, the first thing that popped into my head when I read the blurb was that the book felt like a mix between Miss Peregrine's and Pretty Little Liars. Heh. <br /><br />Wonderful review, I can't wait to pick up a copy!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-739878661565443064.post-34027514239229212312014-05-09T16:02:26.217+10:002014-05-09T16:02:26.217+10:00I requested this from Allen and Unwin.

I admit I didn't like one of E Lockhart's other books (Frankie Landau-banks), but everyone has had such good things to say about We Were Liars.
