Summary:In Rosewood, Pennsylvania, four stunningly beautiful girls are haunted by a very ugly past. Spencer, Aria, Hanna, and Emily want nothing more than to forget Alison DiLaurentis, their former best friend who tried to ruin their lives. But someone refuses to let her memory die. A is still out there, lurking in the shadows and digging up the pretty little liars' newest secrets.
Emily's reconnecting with an old flame, one baby step at a time. But is she headed toward true love or another bundle of heartache? Spencer's learning about the highs and lows of campus life on a trip to Princeton. Aria's seeing a whole new side to Noel's dad--and it could drive a wedge between her and Noel. And, for better or worse, Hanna's getting in touch with her inner A.Secret by secret, lie by lie, the girls get tangled in A's dangerous web. A knows about everything, from their tiniest transgressions to the awful incident in Jamaica. Soon A will have enough ammunition to pull the trigger and end the pretty little liars, once and for all. . . .
My Thoughts: I stopped feeling sorry for these girls A LONG TIME AGO. Like they honestly haven't learned their lesson, so I feel nothing. BUT WHY ARE THESE BOOKS SO ADDICTING!??!

These books are like crack, so bad, so so bad, but you must have them. I must have these books, but they're horrible. There's honestly NO POINT for these books other than to find A. I'm sorry Sara, but I've come to the conclusion EVERYONE IN ROSEWOOD IS A. Fucking everyone. And that's only one of the problems I have with the books. 

I know after Wanted I said I wanted more. I CHANGED MY MIND. No more, no more. As much as I hate these books, I continue to read them. They ARE my guilty pleasure. So enough rambling on about that, as for this book, Stunning, it seemed BETTER than all the other ones I've read recently. I tore through it in about 2 days and it got me out of the reading funk I was in, which is fantastic because we all were a little tired of movie reviews, these books really do get me out of a reading funk.

I enjoy the plot, but, seriously, why do these girls think like this!?? The plot with Noel's dad was unnecessary. Really no purpose than to give Aria some problems. And Spencer, you're suppose to be the smart one, YOU GOT INTO PRINCETON! But you fall asleep while making POT brownies when you KNOW SOMEONE IS WATCHING YOU. That just equals a bad thing. 

WHAT. THE. FUCK. SPENCER.

Emily's baby's plot actually made sense, which is why Emily wins favorite character award. EMILY IS THE ONLY ONE WITH ANY COMMON SENSE.

Which is sad. And another thing, Hanna, you should know by now. DON'T LISTEN TO A. DON'T! Just don't, whoever they are. They aren't trying to help you, they don't like you. DON'T LISTEN TO THEM.

And this book, things got better for the Liars, this actually left me with an ending that didn't make me want to stab myself in my face. 

Thank God.
