We Were Liars by E. Lockhart
3.0

I don't even know what to say of this book. The majority of it annoyed me, especially the constant dodging of what actually happened. I understood that it was there to create a tense and a "what actually happened?" feel to the book, but it dragged on. The end though was so sad and terrible. I'm not sure if I would be able to live with myself if I was Cadence. That's literally all I can think of at this point.
I did enjoy the writing and I really connected with Gat more than any of the other characters.

3/5 stars mainly for the beautiful, almost poetic writing and the surprise factor at the end
