Question about book WE WERE LIARS I stayed up last night and read the book We were liars. In the end I was sad with what happened, but I didn't really understand everything. I don't do super well with books that go back and forth, plus I don't understand how she lost her memory. Was it when she went into the water at night or because of the fire? What was real of the other characters and what was not? If someone who has read the booked and liked it could explain some things a little that would be great :)
