Rating: 3/5
Format: ebook
Buy it: thebookdepository (paperback)
After seeing endless good reviews of this book, when I saw it was available on amazon kindle for £1.99 I decided to give it a shot. I went in to it not knowing anything about it because I'd heard it was best to go in blind and while I still agree that it is best to not know the plot, I didn't enjoy it as much as I was expecting to.
I had to convince myself to keep reading with this book which is usually not a good sign. If I hadn't heard so many good reviews I would've probably given up with it and that is something I very rarely do. I can see why people enjoy it as the good points raised are definitely things I can see, but I just did not enjoy it at all.
It would seem that this is a real marmite book: you'll either love it or you'll hate it. Unfortunately I didn't love it but that doesn't mean that you won't.
Have you read We Were Liars? What did you think of it? Did you love it or hate it?

I loved it, but at the same time I think I know what you mean. Looking back, some of the characters were irritating, but at the time I was just swept along by the plot. I read it quickly while I was on holiday with no distractions, and that probably had something to do with it :)
