Mystery. Young Adult Fiction. Young Adult Literature. HTML:Scandal, scheming, and secrets abound in #1 bestselling author Jennifer Lynn Barnes??s Little White Lies, packed with ??page-turning tension, witty humor? (Jennifer L. Armentrout), and ??characters as devious as they are southern-belle glamorous (E. Lockhart).
"I'm not saying this is Sawyer's fault," the prim and proper one said delicately. "But."
Eighteen-year-old auto mechanic Sawyer Taft did not expect her estranged grandmother to show up at her apartment door and offer her a six-figure contract to participate in debutante season. And she definitely never imagined she would accept. But when she realizes that immersing herself in her grandmother's "society" might mean discovering the answer to the biggest mystery of her life??her father's identity??she signs on the dotted line and braces herself for a year of makeovers, big dresses, bigger egos, and a whole lot of bless your heart. The one thing she doesn't expect to find is friendship, but as she's drawn into a group of debutantes with scandalous, dangerous secrets of their own, Sawyer quickly discovers that her family is not the only mainstay of high society with skeletons in their closet. There are people in her grandmother's glittering world who are not what they appear, and no one wants Sawyer poking her nose into the past. As she navigates the twisted relationships between her new friends and their powerful parents, Sawyer's search for the truth about her own origins is j

* I got this book for review for my honest thoughts*

I really enjoyed this read. I thought it was the prefect mix between Pretty little liars and and a fish out of water storyline. I really thought the characters were so easy to connect to and also characters that you felt immediately connected to. I thought that this book by lynn barnes is not as intense as her previous ones but still a fast pace mystery that was such a fast read. I also enjoy the duel time line in the book. It really kept me wanting to turn the page. I will def be checking out book two. If you enjoyed book like Pretty Little liars but desire a book with strong and more well rounded characters this may the read for you! ( )

Fun, quick, easy. A good twist at the end that I didn't see coming but also didn't particularly care about. ( )

I've been meaning to pick up a book by Jennifer Lynn Barnes FOR YEARS. She's one of those authors I've been standing and staring at through the bookstore's glass window, but just never managed to get my hands on one. Then, I stumbled across Little White Lies and the rest was history. I decided it was time to indulge in some YA insanity with backstabbing girls, and it was worth it. This book is a hoot!

Sawyer gets drafted by her Grandma to join her in debutante land, for a lovely exchange of some college fund money. She lives with her Mom far away from that monstrosity and had no idea that was where her life began. When her Grandma offers her a fantastic contract with the deal of a lifetime, she decides to join the craziness that will make her question everything. Bratty girls fighting over boys, expensive dresses, dinners and dances, and enough cops to be involved that we could sink a battleship... Oh, and the fun has only just started.

It's a drama filled book about debutantes and the insane lengths they will go to for them to keep their secrets safe. It ends with a cliffhanger, so I was not impressed... I enjoy my books being able to end nicely without me feeling like I need to continue. But, this book makes me feel like I need to. What happened? Who's the Father? Who's not the Father? Is the pregnancy fake? What's going on? There's so many things that couldn't fit into this book and finish it up nicely.

This book is a long one though, and some of it didn't really need to be there. Some chapters droned on and on while I was just itching for the action to get started (or end, depending on what plot line we are following).

This book is quirky, and is perfect if you love soap opera like stories - think General Hospital, Pretty Little Liars, Vampire Diaries (without the fantasy). There's enough thrills, drama and laughs in this book to make a reader grin. Keep in mind, it is a YA book so it's relatively clean, with the suggested potential murders, pregnancies and rapes around the corner. The girls are all in jail, but we never get the full why... so if you want to read this book, be ready to commit to a whole series (or read some spoilers to finish the series up, I guess).

Overall, good book! I'll have to try to get my hands on the next one, one of these days.

Three out of five stars. ( )

I haven’t been reading YA very much these days, so I decided to go for a throwback that I’ve been meaning to read for years.

All I have to say is : cute, cute, cute. JLB’s writing style is so fun and easy to fall into- and this story is so freaking cute. It reminded me of a Jessica Brody book, which are always perfection. Definitely will be reading the next book pronto. ( )
