At first the girls think "A" is Alison, because she is the only person who knew their secrets, but then they start to believe the person behind the threats is Toby, because some messages they receive refer to 'The Jenna Thing' and with Alison dead, he is the only other person who was a part of the incident, although everyone but Spencer is unaware of why he took the blame for what happened to Jenna."The Jenna Thing" is revealed to be an incident in which Ali had set off a firework in Jenna Cavanaugh's brother Toby Cavanaugh's tree house to scare him, and Jenna had been blinded.

She intends to reveal the true identity of "A" to the other girls, but is run down by "A" before she can do so.Book 4 Unbelieveable ( This was my favorite in the box set because it answered my questions untill book 5)Hanna barely survives being rundown by "A", and due to a head injury, she loses her memory of the previous day, thus forgetting "A"'s identity. Emily's parents catch her with Maya at a party and send her to Iowa to live with her strict, religious relatives.

Moments later, Spencer receives a text from Emily, telling her that Mona is "A".

While Aria, Emily and Hanna go to the police station to tell Darren that Mona is "A", Mona drives Spencer to Floating Man's Quarry, where she explains that she saw what happened on the night of The Jenna Thing, and when Maya moved in, she found Alison's diary, which contained the girls' secrets. Using the information to her advantage, she got a new phone and became "A" to get revenge on the girls for blinding Jenna. Spencer accuses Mona of killing Alison, but Mona says that it was Ian who killed her, as Alison had blackmailed him about their relationship.Spencer secretly calls Darren, who overhears her conversation with Mona and learns of their location. Mona tells Spencer that she originally planned to frame her for Alison's murder, but recently grew to like her, and thus decided to frame Melissa to do Spencer a favor. She then offers Spencer her life in return that she becomes "A" with her, as they could pin the blame on someone else. Spencer refuses and Mona attacks her.

As they leave, the girls are relieved that they can move on with their lives and forget about "A", but Emily catches a glimpse of someone who resembles Alison and is unsure if that will ever happen.All in all these are must read books for fans of the books and tv show because its fantastic cant wait to read the rest of the books in the series (again) and purchase them

Right now, the PLL's are arrested for murder and on trial for their lives for the death of Ali, and that's just how she wants it. Alison has a plan, and that's to ruin the lives of Aria, Emily, Spencer and Hanna, and as the old saying goes, " I love it when a plan comes together", and Alison has a perfect plan. That is all I can really say about the plot, there are far too many spoilers that would be spoiled if I say anything else. Just trust me, if you've read all the books up to Vicious, then you'll want to get this one, ASAP! It's that good. There are some jaw dropping moments, and fantastic plot twists.What I liked is how the each of the PLLs dealt with what they are going through differently. There are some very powerful emotions that are displayed by each of the girls. Again, I really want to say a lot more but if I did, it would spoil a lot. I want the reader to discover things in the way they were meant to.I loved all the books, and I'm sad to see the series end. It's been a fantastic ride/ journey getting to know Aria, Hanna, Spencer and Emily, but, as the saying goes....All Good Things....

Wow! These books are so different from the tv show! So many left out siblings and they did not stay true to their described looks from the book series at all. Ali's blonde hair & bitchiness and Aria's dark hair & slight goth fashion are about all they kept for the show. Hannah has dark hair, Mona has white blonde hair, Emily is white with strawberry blonde hair & Spencer, her mom and Melissa all have blonde hair as well. Emily's parents are super religious and a bit racist. Spencer's parents freeze her out, cut off her cards and don't bother making her dinner when they find out she and Wren kissed. They're very cold people in general. Aria's Mom is awful to her over the affair instead of solely blaming Byron for Aria not telling her.The time frame of when Ali went missing and how long it took them to discover her body. Emily's boyfriend Ben (ugh, read to find out how horrific he is!) Toby's story. Jenna's last name. Etc, etc.There are shocking moments from book 2 that weren't included in the show & from book 3 that will make you furious at Emily's parents and siblings!I am partly into book 4 already. I am flying through these books because of how good they are. I highly recommend them to any fan of the show or of teen dramas!For age reference, I was 18 when the show was on air (I'm 29 now) and I decided to wait until the show was over before I read the series. If I read a book first, I end up hating the shows or films for not matching what I imagined in my head while reading. I had to stop reading Twilight because less than 3/4 of the way into the book, it was already better than both of the Twilight and New Moon films. It was too upsetting how much they left out. So now I just wait until the visual/animated stories are over before reading them so I can have a clearer image in my head. If anything is different, I treat it like it's a deleted scene. Don't even get me started on The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants! Which is another series I would highly recommend! There are only 5 of them, that I know of but they're very good. (Fun fact: Lucy Hale, "Aria" from PLL, plays Lena's little sister "Efie" in The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 2)
