Title: Beauty Queens
Author: Libba Bray

Pages: 400
Pub Date: May 24, 2011
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.--Goodreads
Just . . . read the description. I know you skipped over it.
*waits*
Ready?
HOLY COW THIS SOUNDS GOOD!! And that cover?! I am SO IN.
Bonus for y'all: I may have done one or two pageants back in the day. Here is a photo. Yes, I am holding a trophy. (I won a trophy!)
I was never normal. Even back in high school when I was still pretending to be.
Aaaaanyway. So there's my pick for this last Wednesday of my 23rd year. Treacherous islands and bitchy girls. Mwahahahaha.
This one sounds like it could be really funny and congrats on winning that trophy!
