Summary (by Goodreads):
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.
The first time I ever saw Libba, she was wearing a cow costume and trotting around to promote her book (going Bovine). Now that takes guts to do!. I LOVE the idea of America's Next Top Model meets Survivor. Just seems like a really fun read!
Beauty Queens has been receiving so much praise lately and it sure does sound really funny! :)
