Sadye can be quite judgmental of people, and that really rubbed me the wrong way, but there’s a big difference between her and many judgmental protagonists: she knows she’s judgmental and can be petty and such, and it tears her up, but she does it anyway because she’s still human. In fact, she inspired my recent post about my flip-flopping feelings about unlikeable protagonists. The main reason the beginning was rocky was because I didn’t like the protagonist, Sadye. This book started off a bit shaky, but once I got into it, I really started enjoying it. Lockhart’s Ruby Oliver quartet, was a unsatisfied with her The Disreputable History of Frankie Landau-Banks, and decided to pick up her latest, We Were Liars, when the hype had died down (ie, I’m still waiting). I wasn’t quite sure what to expect with this book. It’s a season of hormones, gold lame, hissy fits, jazz hands, song and dance, true love, and unitards that will determine their future –and test their friendship. Two theater-mad, self-invented fabulositon Ohio teenagers. Lockhart ( The Disreputable History of Frankie Landau-Banks)
