Beauty Queens, by Libba Bray
From Amazon:
From bestselling, Printz Award-winning author Libba Bray comes 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 emall. 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.
I know, I know--practically everyone's already read this one. But I haven't yet, okay? I just got it from the library yesterday and am RIDICULOUSLY excited to read it. It seems like people either love love love it, or they are just "meh" about it--I really hope I'm in the former category, because I've been looking forward to this one for a while!
Have you read this book? What did you think of it?
Okay, so i must be one of the select few who have never even heard of this book! sounds really good!

I haven't read it! The story sounds intriguing, but I really don't like the cover for some reason!
ReplyDeleteI have seen this on a few other sites, but I'm not sure if I will like it. Can't wait to see your thoughts! Newer follower!
