Waiting On Wednesday (8)

Waiting On Wednesday is a weekly meme, hosted by Jill at Breaking The Spine, in which we highlight an upcoming book release we're eagerly awaiting.


This week I'm waiting on Beauty Queens by Libba Bray. I like what I've read of the Gemma Doyle trilogy by her, but I LOVED Going Bovine. I'm really excited for more comedies by Libba. It's due for release on the 24th of May, 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.


[Synopsis by Goodreads]
