![]() ![]() Overall, The Heiresses is an intriguing story full of twists and turns, perfect for a summer read. ![]() Still, the novel, though riddled with sex, lies, fraud and other adult problems, seems to be geared toward upper-age young adults. Part of this is because the characters themselves are adults and have problems far less petty than those of the Pretty Little Liars girls. It’s difficult to categorize it is not quite a young adult novel, per se, but rather a book for adults and/or mature YA readers. Though it is, essentially, a Gossip Girl– Pretty Little Liars hybrid, The Heiresses is thrilling and enjoyable to read. The Saybrooks have never taken their “curse” seriously … but when their seemingly perfect cousin Poppy commits suicide and an ominous threat saying “one heiress down, four to go” is left in her wake, the Saybrooks must watch out for their lives. Sara Shepard’s latest, an upscale mystery about four heiresses to one of New York’s most prestigious diamond companies, will appease fans with an insatiable appetite for her Pretty Little Liars series. Set in a Gossip Girl-style society, the novel follows the lives of the Saybrook family and the tragedies that have mysteriously surrounded them since the establishment of their company. ![]()
