Review

Full of twists and turns, mystery fans will love Liars, Inc. Max spends his time with his girlfriend Parvati, and his best friend, Preston. Bored with school and life, they decide to start a business lying for other kids by calling in fake sicknesses and forging documents. Business is booming when Preston asks Max to cover for him. The next day, Preston is missing and the FBI thinks Max is responsible. The author takes us through a number of twists and turns as Max tries to figure out what really happened. Just when you think you’ve figured out who is responsible and what happened to Preston, author Paula Stokes throws another wrench in the works. Max never does figure it all out, until it comes to a dramatic climax where life and death are on the line. Aside from the mystery, this book will have you thinking about how well you really know people and who you can trust.

Overall Book Score: very good
