Pretty Little Liars-The Booklist


With Pretty Little Liars now a TV Show on ABC Family, my hold list for the series is up and teens are wanting to read the series. So what can you give readers while they're waiting? Here are other books to suggest:


Private Series by Kate Brian-I haven't read this one yet, but it has boarding school secrets, mystery, and scandal, so fans of Pretty Little Liars should find similar themes. There's also a Private webseries, so readers can get hooked on another show.


She's So Dead to Us by Kate Brian-Rich girls turns poor girl, this was recommend in the comments!

Top 8 by Katie Finn-Another one I haven't read yet, but my teens have told me it's good. This one has social networking sabatoge-with someone hacking Madison's Friendverse profile.

The Luxe Series by Anna Godbersen-This one has gossip, secrets, jealousy, backstabbing mean girls, romance, and lots of fashion.

Paper Towns by John Green-I read this for my lit class and I can't believe I never reviewed it! After a crazy night, Margo disappears and Quentin is determined to find her. Trust me-this book is great! Give this to readers who like the mystery and friendship over the gossip girl plot.

Deception by Lee Nichols-This new YA release has a paranormal twist-the main character sees ghosts. But there's lots of questions on who can really be trusted and a great paranormal mystery that will engage readers.
Beautiful Americans by Lucy Silag -Four high schoolers with secrets studying in Paris when one of them disappears.
The Naughty List by Suzanne Young-Cheerleaders who lead a secret life as spies and catch cheating boyfriends.

What else are you giving your Pretty Little Liars readers?

  1. She's So Dead to Us by Keiran Scott (aka Kate Brian). Similar enough to her Private series for fans to enjoy, but with enough differences to feel fresh. I really enjoyed it and can't wait for the sequel.

  6. While not exact read alikes both of these are pretty mysterious:
    The Cinderella Society and Naughty List, both revolve around secrets, but mostly everybody gets to live.

  7. Rosalia-I was thinking of putting The Naughty List down too! Good suggestion!

  8. Such a great idea for a post! I have to say, I never even wanted to read the PLL series, but then this morning I watched the first two episodes on Hulu and got hooked. I went to the library right after to check out the first book, but of course.... there were zero on the shelf! Thanks for the alternative suggestions :)

  9. GreenBeanTeenQueen, would you recommend the PLL books? I'm not a big fan of trashy books but I LOVED the TV series so...And DECEPTION was amazing. I definitely can't wait for the sequel!

  10. Bookworm-I just finished the first one and I'm addicted!!! I didn't find them as trashy as Gossip Girl and the show is following the books pretty faithfully.

  11. I would add, Rosebush by Michele jaffe

Eleanor and Park by Rainbow Rowell

Rating: 5/5 Stars Genre: Realistic Fiction Release Date: 2/26/2013 Add to Goodreads About the Book: Eleanor and Park are both misfits. When new girl Eleanor sits next to Park on the bus, they don't want anything to do with each other. But over the course of the school year, things change. It starts with comic books and becomes a friendship and a romance that the two will never forget. You never forget your first love. GreenBeanTeenQueen Says: Have you ever had a book sit on your shelf that you've heard so much hype about? And you think that books sounds like it would be right up your alley, but you're in a reading slump and you're afraid to give it a try unless it fails? I knew Eleanor and Park sounded like my perfect book, but I was in such an after committee slump that I even though I knew this book would help, I just didn't want to be disappointed. I should have known better because Eleanor and Park was perfect and everything that I had hoped it wou

Post Downton Abbey Reading List

Downton Abbey is over (with a shocking and frustrating ending!) and now I'm suffering Downton Abbey withdrawal. I've got a reading list full of books that I hope will satisfy my post-Downton Abbey cravings and I thought I'd share what's in my pile and get suggestions for other after Downton reads. Here's what I hope to be reading this year (a mix of YA and adult titles):                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  A couple Julian Fellowes reads:                And a few re-reads:                    Edited to add: What's on your Post-Downton Abbey reading list?
