Waiting On Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Jill at  breaking the spine , that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating. Title: Hide and Seek (The Lying Game #4)   Author: Sara Shepard Release Date: 7/31/2012 I can't wait for this book, I totally love them! Summary: My friends and I used to play lying games. Now my twin sister is living one. When I was alive, my family seemed picture-perfect. My adoptive parents adored me, and my little sister, Laurel, copied my every move. But now that my long-lost twin, Emma, had taken my place to solve my murder, we're both learning just how flawed my family really is. Laurel is shooting Emma nasty looks and sneaking around with my ex-boyfriend. And it turns out my parents are keeping a huge secret - could it be the reason I'm dead? How far would they go to keep the truth buried? No one can harm me now, but Emma is still fair game. And if she's not careful, she'll end up buried, too...

This book was really good, the plot was fantastic and the characters were well-done. Elisabeth's writing style is great, it's formal but she has also put some humor in it.

Book Review: Xor

Also the action in the book is good, but sometimes it reminds me
