Beauty Queens

What a ridiculous book! There are several moments in this book that have heart and a message and would be great in a book that was better written. Sometimes the satire and the comedy in this book overrode the plot and characters which made it a little hard to read. There were some parts where I'm like, “this isn't necessary!” She could have probably gotten some of her points across without the commercial breaks and fact sheets. But for what it's worth, I've never read a book like this so Libba Bray gets credit for doing something original and clearly having fun with her work. It's a decent book that should be given a shot.
