Goodreads Choice Award for Best Young Adult Fiction
ALA Top Ten Best Fiction for Young Adults
#1 New York Times Bestseller
"Thrilling, beautiful, and blisteringly smart, We Were Liars is utterly unforgettable."--John Green, #1 New York Times Bestselling author of The Fault in Our Stars
We Were Liars (2014) is a modern, sophisticated, suspense, and young-adult novel from a National Book Award finalist and Printz Award honoree E. Lockhart. We Were Liars focuses on the theme of self-acceptance, family morals, and the possibly deadly consequences of one's mistakes. It is centered on the wealthy, seemingly perfect Sinclair family, who spend every summer gathered on their private island. However, not every summer is the same—when something happens to Cadence during the summer of her fifteenth year, the four "Liars" (Cadence, Johnny, Gat, and Mirren) re-emerge two years later to prompt Cadence to remember the incident.
A beautiful and distinguished family.
A private island.
A brilliant, damaged girl; a passionate, political boy.
A group of four friends—the Liars—whose friendship turns destructive.
A revolution. An accident. A secret.
Lies upon lies.
True love.
The truth.
Read it.
And if anyone asks you how it ends, just LIE.
