It was great to finally see a female love interest who wasn't so goody two shoes, and was multifaceted. It's interesting to know more about why her thinking process here and I'd love a spin-off with Parvati as the main character!<br /><br />Faye at <a href="http://thesocialpotato.maryfaye.net" rel="nofollow">The Social Potato</a>Faye M.https://www.blogger.com/profile/01482378962410177583noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4541582388948046827.post-42427482705416369852015-08-05T22:52:57.255+02:002015-08-05T22:52:57.255+02:00Heh!

I actually like her precisely because she's unapologetic and because she has such a clearly defined sense of self. I loved the book as a whole so much, too.Maja (The Nocturnal Library)https://www.blogger.com/profile/14276646316400863181noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4541582388948046827.post-66715448042695341822015-08-03T20:34:02.598+02:002015-08-03T20:34:02.598+02:00Parvati is a fascinating character!

I personally didn't think Parvati was just plain awesome in Liars, Inc., but hey, these things happen :) That bit about the math tutor is a complete turnoff lol, and I suppose people would say to blame it on her "youth"?
