Product Description:

Everyone has something to hide—especially high school juniors spencer, aria, emily, and hanna.

Spencer covets her sister's boyfriend. Aria's fantasizing about her English teacher. Emily's crushing on the new girl at school. Hanna uses some ugly tricks to stay beautiful.

But they've all kept an even bigger secret since their friend Alison vanished.

How do I know? Because I know everything about the bad girls they were, the naughty girls they are, and all the dirty secrets they've kept. And guess what? I'm telling.

Amazon.com Review:
In the exclusive Philadelphia suburb of Rosewood, Alison is the Queen Bee of her elite seventh grade hive. BFs Aria, Hanna, Spencer, and Emily vie for her attention, even as each of them hides a hideous secret only Alison knows. So when Alison goes missing after a slumber party, never to be seen again, each girl is heartbroken, but also a little relieved. Now it is three years later, and though the four girls have grown apart, they are each still hiding something. Artsy Aria is carrying on an affair with one of her teachers, fashionista Hanna shoplifts to accessorize her trendy outfits, blue-blood Spencer is sleeping with her older sister’s boyfriend, while straight-A Emily is trying to ignore her attraction to a new female classmate. When the girls begin receiving threatening text messages and emails that from someone known only as 'A,' they must confront the fact that against all odds, it appears Alison is back. Could Alison still be alive? And if so, why is she so determined to uncover all their dirty little secrets?

Debut author Sara Shepard's shamelessly addictive blend of Desperate Housewives and I Know What You Did Last Summer is absolutely delicious. Her infusion of mystery and murder breathes new life into the tired genre of high society chick lit, and will give fans of Gossip Girl and The A-List something new to dig their French-manicured nails into. A cliff-hanging ending will leave readers craving the second title in the planned four-part series. --Jennifer Hubert

- Slick & creepy suspense that's sure to thrill readers of all ages!
First off, I want it to be known that this is not a book for younger readers. Much of the subject matter involves topics that are just too complicated for some younger readers. Now that doesn't mean that some advanced younger readers won't be able to read this maturely, but offhand I'd say that this book is best for readers who are 16 & above. Any parents that have kids that are interested in this series should read the books first & see if it's right for their kids. (It's a great series, so there is the danger of the parent swiping their kid's copies before they can read them!)

The first book in the series introduces the characters of Spencer, Aria, Emily, & Hanna. These girls used to be the best of friends... until their friend Alison mysteriously dissapeared one night at a sleepover. After that disastrous night they all went their seperate ways for the next few years, only to once again ... Read More

- ADDICTING
THIS IS THE PERFECT BOOK TO READ ALL IN ONE SITTING. BUT NOT RECOMENDED FOR CHILDREN. THESE ARE PERFECT FOR TEENS. MY FRIEND AND I LOVE THIS BOOK. YOU SOULDN'T SAY IT IS SO INAPROPRAITE IT IS NOT MENT FOR LITTLE KIDS BUT MOST OF MY FRIEND SAY THIS IS SUCH A GOOD BOOK AND ITS TRUE. I WOULD THINK IF ANY YOUNG CHILD WAS INTERESTED THEY COULD HAVE THEIR PARENTS READ IT. I BET YOU THEY WILL LOVE IT. YOU JUST CAN'T GO AROUND TRASHING A GREAT BOOK.

- Granddaughter request....
I haven't the faintest idea of whether this book is good or bad. All I know is that my 12-year old granddaughter loves the series, and she has managed to be a teriffic kid despite it, and anything that gets her to read is a good thing.

- Desperate Housewives' Secret Lovechild on the Loose!, Pt. I
Remember the first season of "Desperate Housewives"? This first installment is better than that! The first book of this highly addictive series starts with former BFFs Spencer, Aria, Hanna and Emily receiving disturbing e-mails and texts from someone called "A". "A" seems to know there deepest, darkest secrets from their past and their present. Could "A" be Allison, their former Queen Bee and frenemy who mysterious disappeared a few years ago without a trace? Unexpected twists, turns and the girls' bond over an incident dubbed "The Jenna Thing" force them back together to solve the mystery of the person behind the mysterious texts while trying to keep "A" from exposing their damaging secrets. The subject matter (eating disorders, underage drinking, underage sex , homosexuality, shoplifting and cyberbullying), which seems to be the norm for most young adult series these days may seem off putting to sheltered teens ...
