Book Description:
From bestselling, Printz Award-winning author Libba Bray, the story of a plane of beauty pageant contestants that crashes on a desert island.
Teen beauty queens. A "Lost"-like island. Mysteries and dangers. No access to email. And the spirit of fierce, feral competition that lives underground in girls, a savage brutality that can only be revealed by a journey into the heart of non-exfoliated darkness. Oh, the horror, the horror! Only funnier. With evening gowns. And a body count.
This book was a really great fun read! I read this in no time, and had fun doing so. If you are in the mood for a good beach/summer read, then pick this one up!
The storyline reads as that of a movie or television show including commercial breaks. Very interesting that way, too. Was fun to see how these beauty queen characters handled being stranded on an island. You can almost imagine these events actually happening to teenage beauty queen contestants with hilarious results! A very fun and funny book!
