Bad Girls Don't Die by Katie Alender
REVIEW BY MARYANNE
(Guest Teen Blogger)
A "social
outcast," Alexis, begins to experience strange occurrences with her
thirteen-year-old sister, Kasey. Kasey has always had a love for dolls,
while Alexis has become and amateur photographer. However, Kasey's love
has become obsessive, and with Kasey's sudden "black outs," boiling water
on the unlit stove, and out of wack air conditioning units, things are becoming
borderline creepy within their home.
When this book was
dropped into my lap, I was unsure about what I'd find. The gorgeous cover
drew me in, and I began reading it whenever I had time. This book never
left my hands if I could help it. Alexis, witty and sarcastic, had me so
in tuned to the story. When the book came to a funny part, I giggled.
When it became intense, I couldn't put it down. I loved that the
romance was subtle, which was refreshing. The book never strays from the
plot. The only thing I didn't like about Bad Girls Don't Die are the cliche, stereotypical,
"popular" types that always hate the main character or want on her
to-be boyfriend. Overall, I think I'd like books to fall in my lap more
often. This was definitely a pleasant surprise!
