Review by Libi

I enjoyed reading Rules for Liars. It is about two girls named Rebecca and Nikki who move into the same apartment building. Both of them tell lies, and those lies have unexpected consequences. The story is told from both of their perspectives. I liked the book because it has a strong storyline and interesting characters. It also shows how the characters misunderstand each other, but when you read their own chapters, you see what they are really like. This book is a good choice for people who enjoy realistic fiction and stories told from multiple perspectives.

Review by Phoebe

This book was very good! The plot was extremely creative, and it had a very good life lesson. I liked how they went from Rebecca’s point of view to Nikki’s point of view. This showed both of their thoughts and feelings and how their lives are so different yet so similar. They have different religions, and different styles and personalities, but they both have a kind heart and willing mind, I love how this element really ties the book together. Overall, I love this book. The plot, characters, theme, and everything in between were amazing!
