PERFECT is the third installment in the
Pretty Little Liars series. Set against a backdrop of luxury and privilege,
this novel has typical mean girls and their
problems. Hanna''s bulimic, Aria''s having an affair with her teacher, Spencer''s having flashbacks that make her look nuts, and Emily''s having trouble coming to terms with being a lesbian. See pretty, rich, obsessively materialistic people have problems too!
The book had potential, the cliffhanger ending was great, and the scary omnipotence of the mysterious character called "A" could have been unnerving. Instead "A" comes off as annoying and the book is so full of name brands that it detracts from the rest of the story.
Many teen girls will love the drama and fashion of the book, while parents will probably roll their eyes and worry about all the bad behavior and materialism on display. It''s yet another
cliquey book in the sea of cliquey series out there.
