Find all of my reviews at: http://52bookminimum.blogspot.com/ Pitched as Gone Girl meets Thirteen Reasons Why Suicide Notes From Beautiful Girls was one of the pop-up recommendations on my library homepage. I had heard zilch about this book before requesting it and only did so because I liked the title. (Deep, I know.) Then I saw that sales pitch contained in the blurb and had the following reaction . . . However, since I have no ability to not read a book once it is downloaded, I had no3.5 stars. Cheesy in places and not particularly new, but definitely an enjoyable, psychological read. TO START WITH: THE BAD It's cliche. I think we've all read plenty of books with slightly naive leads and evil opposite characters. Anyone who's read YA suspense of this type will know the approximate direction the plot is headed. This didn't affect my enjoyment of the book, especially since I read this before becoming tired of the cliche, but YA suspense veterans, be warned. Another complaint:
Oh boy... I am going to have a lot to say about this one... Full review to come.
"Our hearts are pounding,And I can't tell whose is whose,her palms on my face,her lips on mine,her heart inside my chest." Lately I've been craving this new type of books. Books about women and their relationship with each other. Books about the intense, sometimes twisted and hypnotizing friendship women have with each other. I love the way girls love each other recklessly and wild. Unconstrained and passionately. Suicide Notes from Beautiful Girls is about a consuming, intense friendship
What did I just read...?
Contains so many of my favorite elements, including a toxic homoerotic friendship and some good old-fashioned revenge questing, as well as some really lovely writing. Compelling enough to read in one shot, too. Too much of the subplot stuff was left too open for me - somewhere just shy of open to interpretation and into an area of less-than-satisfying in a way that retroactively colored the book for me into something a little less successful than I anticipated finding it - but I enjoyed it a lot
Delia knew something someone didnt want her to know, thats for damn sure. And she threatened to tell. So whose secret was it? And what were they willing to do to make her keep it? Lovely cover, intriguing title, nothing new or special for the most part, until a cheap twist comes flying in towards the end.This book was all kinds of messy. Typical bitchy high-school drama that tries to follow in the footsteps of Gone Girl, but ends up being laughably cheesy, rather than an interesting
