The List by Siobhan Vivian

It is a tradition at Mount Washington High School for a list of the four prettiest girls and the four ugliest girls to be produced just before Homecoming.  One girl is chosen from each grade.  This book tells the story from the perspective of all eight girls.

I enjoyed reading the book, including the twist ending.  It’s interesting to see how the list affects the girls positively and negatively.  The girls most hurt by the list are not the ones that you would think.  The book is both realistic and eye opening.  It’s more serious and fun then I thought it would be when I picked it up, but I really liked the book.

New Lists

I have added lists of some of my favorite books. If you are looking for a good book then this is where you want to start. I still plan on putting up reviews (good and bad) for the new books I read, but the ones on the list are my favorites. A word of warning; the books that are labeled as Adult are for people who don't mind cursing, violence, and a little sex. If you are under 18 think about reading the teen books only. I don't want to censor but I don't want you to think that every book on this blog is for all ages. Let me know if you love or hate one of my recommendations.
