Never Have I Ever

Never Have I Ever is the sequel to The Lying Game. It is about the same topic -- Sutton is missing and Emma, her long lost twin sister, is in her place trying to figure out who killed Sutton. In this sequel, Emma is narrowing down the people who may have killed Sutton. She figures out that a lot of people have alibis for what they were doing the night that Sutton went missing. Sutton's sister, Laurel, for example, was at a sleepover that night with her tennis team. So, it could not have been Laurel or any of the team members.

This book also has a lot of Lying Game pranks. The Lying Game is a group of Sutton's friends who like to pull very big pranks on each other. One of the pranks was played by Gaby and Lilly, who are twins and two of Emma's suspects. They are not in the Lying Game club, but want to be so they pull a big prank. One night, all of the girls, including Emma in Sutton's place, go camping and on a hike. During the hike, they reach a cliff and Gaby tells Emma to jump off the cliff first. Emma does not want to because she is worried that Gaby and Lilly murdered Sutton and are trying to kill her too. So instead, Emma pushes Gaby down the cliff and they all hear a big "boom." They thought she had fallen and died. Then, all of the other girls get mad at Emma. Emma goes to look for Gaby. Meanwhile, Gaby is hiding in a spot that she built the weekend before and really hadn't fallen very far at all. When she is hiding she makes a bunch of small noises to act like she is stuck. Emma finds her in the hiding spot and says that she is sorry. Gaby says that she will never forgive Emma and wants to hurt her. Emma is very worried (because she thinks Gaby may have killed Sutton). Then everyone says that it was a prank and they had recorded and tricked Emma.

This is just one example of what made the book so interesting and fun. The book is written by Sara Shepard. She has written all of the Pretty Little Liar books and The Lying Game series. She recently published a new book in The Lying Game series called Two Truths and a Lie. I am looking forward to reading it. The Lying Game is also a TV show on ABC family, but the TV show is not very much like the books.
