4.3 - 4.5 starsThe ending was kind of jacked up. Ariana killed 2 people. One who she detested and one whom she once cared so much for. And as the series move on, I'm not so sure I'll like it as much anymore. And shouldn't Ariana kind of hate Reed? I could rant for hours about this book. But evidently, my figners hurt from too much playing on the violin. I'm definitely buying the next 2 books though, I gotta know how this story ends! Summary: Ariana Osgood continues her life as a student at the Atherton-Pryce Hall boarding school where she has been tapped to be a member of the secret society Stone and Grave. Ariana is not really herself ever since she’s taken over the identity of Briana Leigh Covington. Ariana’s accomplice Kaitlynn Nottingham is also under an assumed identity and poses a potential threat to Ariana’s admission into the Stone and Grave as well as her own assumed identity. Ariana excels at every test the Stone and Grave give her, but will it be enough to ensure her admission to the secret society and keep her own identity safe as well?Review: The fast-paced, mysterious "Sweet Deceit” takes readers into the dark minds of privileged teens. The story is entertaining and is perfectly understandable having not read any other books in the series. The ending of this installment suggests that the story will indeed continue and the reader will no doubt be looking forward to the next dilemma faced by Ariana Osgood.
So much better than the third one but the writing is still a little bit predictable.

Would've been a 3.5 rating, but that ending totally caught me off guard.
