An open letter to Mona Vanderwaal & Janel Parrish MonA Vanderwaal - you will forever be my favorite pretty little liAr. From Loser Mona to the original A, from losing the game to reclaiming what has always been yours, you've become the villain we all loved to hate; the villain we've all despised, but still continue to be in awe of. Thank you for showing me this game, for persuading me to play, and for being the best game master ever. I've seen a lot, and definitely learned a lot. It's a very dangerous game to play and I just can't help but admire your work. Really, I wish you were the one behind the entire thing throughout the series, but then your last sequence became everything to me. It left in me a lingering feeling of pride and satisfaction. Thank you for proving that nerds, too, can play it rough and that being a victim is a choice. Thank you for being a complicated representation of what it means to be bullied and be driven to a corner. Thank you for your strength and determination. And, thank you for executing the game that started it all. You've transformed from being a loser to a supportive BFF, kickass villain, deranged patient, provocative psychopath, sheepish pawn, badass frienemy, dead body, an Alison twin, a badass frienemy again, and finally, to being the top game master. You have indeed proven how difficult, cool, and awesome it was to be a Mona Vanderwaal in a Rosewood full of Alison DiLaurentises. Thank you for being the saving grace of these pretty little liars even after you've lost the game. Thank you for staying so resourceful, badass, and downright amazing. Thank you for teaching me the beauty in complications and mysteries. Thank you for being my motivation, my only motivation to keep watching and see how things would unfold. And finally, thank you @janelparrish for giving life to this powerhouse character, for being everything that Mona is in the series, for being just as equally brilliant as her. You would've been an amazing Spencer Hastings, but I couldn't imagine anyone do Mona Vanderwaal as perfect as you. Really wish you could read this.
