Emily Fields (Book Character)

Emily Fields is one of the four main characters of the book series made by the Author Sara Shepard. She is portrayed by Erin McQuatters.

Emily was a friend of Alison DiLaurentis and deeply attracted to her. Emily was dating a guy named Ben Coogan before she realized her true feelings were for girls. She secretly went out with Maya St. Germain (her neighbor who's currently living in Ali's former home) for a while before her parents found out and forced her to go to Tree Tops, a rehabilitation center for gays. Emily finds out even her counselor can't hide her true self and decides to give Maya a chance.

Her parents find out, and she is forced to go live with her aunt and uncle in Iowa. During her stay in Iowa, Emily meets a girl named Trista, who seems to like her, and hangs out with her. When she runs away from her aunt and uncle's house, her parents say on the news they want her back and she returns home. Later in the series, she meets up with Trista at a dance and almost kisses her, which Mona witnesses. However, she begins to date Isaac, revealing she is bisexual. She even conceives a child with Isaac, forcing her to quit the swim team and deliver the baby without her parents ever knowing she was pregnant.

Physical Appearance
Emily has strawberry blond hair tinted with green from chlorine. In the book series, Emily has broad shoulders and skinny, but muscular legs; she wears jeans and "dorky" swimming t-shirts and never takes off the friendship bracelet Alison made her. Eventually, she does exchange the bracelet for a silver one after she wishes to forget about Alison and the drama.

Biography
Emily is dedicated. Dedicated to swimming, to her parents, and to her unrequited loves—some of them girl crushes. She's also a little superstitious: she makes conditions with nature, seeing things as signs, such as the condition that the next car that passes will be red, which to her means that something unique will happen. Another example is when she says to herself: "The squirrel climbs up the tree, and Maya will be alright."

Emily's strawberry blond hair is tinted green from the chlorine in the pool, and her dorky "Swim Chick" t-shirts are the height of Fields' fashion. Ali definitely questioned Em's style, but she knew Emily would pounce on anyone who threatened her. That's why Ali nicknamed her "Killer."
