“Crushed” is the thirteenth book in the “Pretty Little Liars” series written by Sarah Shepard. The series is a mystery thriller that follows four girls that live in Rosewood, Philadelphia, after their friend Alison Dilaurentis was founded dead after years being disappeared. In that moment they start receiving stalking messages by someone who calls himself or herself A. The book series became a hit ABC TV series, that although is based on the books has taking different twists.

They now know that A is not working alone and they think the key to find out everything is to found this A’s helper. They are sure Graham knew something but know he is unconscious and unable to tell, so Hanna started working as nurse in the burned clinic to be close to him in case that he wakes up. Emily is trying to get some information from Ali’s time at the preserve. Spencer works with her new friend to find A’s hiding. And last but not least Aria, who might be dating the enemy.

As all the books in the series so far “Crushed” was a thrilling, twisted and interesting book. As always these girls are one step behind their stalker. In this book the most affected character was Aria, not only she was being stalked by A, but their friend also pushed her since they were sure Noel was Ali’s helper. The thing I like about this book, which is the same thing I like about the series, is that the author makes you think the stalker, or in this case the stalker helper is whoever she wants you to think is. Everyone is suspicious, there are times I have even though one of the girls might be the stalker.

As I always say about these books, I really recommend them because they are the perfect match between chic lit and mystery thriller.
