Vicious Little Darlings by Katherine Easer - ARC Review

Thursday, March 24, 2011

Title: Vicious Little Darlings
Author: Katherine Easer

Hardcover, 320 pages

Expected publication: June 21st 2011 by Bloomsbury USA Children's Books
Source: ARC



Plot:
Sarah Weaver wasn't looking forward to starting at an all-girls school. But that was before she met Maddy. Maddy and her best friend, Agnes, are fun and rich and interesting—and for some reason, they seem to really like Sarah. Before long, Maddy and Agnes have moved Sarah into a big house off campus, where they cook together, buy each other presents, and share each other's secrets. So why does Sarah feel like something's bizarrely wrong? As more and more cracks start to show in Maddy's and Agnes's perfect veneers, Sarah notices some strange and disturbing things: Maddy's compulsive lying, Agnes's obsession with Maddy, and the deterioration of their friendship. And just when Sarah begins to question her own sanity, things turns deadly. Fans of Pretty Little Liars will devour this juicy debut novel.

My Thoughts:

A good young adult contemporary novel, to me, is gritty and real, with a plot that is reasonable, yet has a great twist. A twist I can't guess by the second chapter of the novel. Well, my friends, I am so happy to tell you I found that in Vicious Little Darlings.

I really didn't know what to expect when I started this ARC, but when I got into chapter one, I fell in love with the main character, Sarah. She was different, with tons of flaws, which makes a great character. I love how she had this internal struggle about her promiscuity. It made her seem real. She battled with making everyone else, but herself, happy. This of course only adds to her misery.

Sarah's two friends really stumped me. Maddie was sweet at times, but seemed crazy a majority of the time. Easer did a great job making Maddie come across as someone to watch closely. Agnes on the other hand, just seemed to be a raging bitch and a closet lesbian. She keeps a gun in her purse and isn't afraid to threaten random people with. Seriously, these two kept me on the edge of my seat. They kept me guessing until the end. :)

I love, love, loved this novel. It was so gritty. Easer let loose in this debut. She didn't hold back on the cursing, sexual description, or the sear violence in the novel. For that she is now on my favorite YA authors list and I will be anxious to read anything else she puts out.

' Bonuses have always been the main attraction for many players to join a site and gamble a bit. This is a controversial matter, since two major online-casino operators have been revealed with criminal records that range from bank scams organized crime. Using casino play money, I played the concept in one casino bonus 100 consecutive times, and I won 100 times.

What уou saiԁ was aсtuallу very logіcal.

Howevег, what about this? suppoѕe уou wеre to create а awesome title?
I mean, I dοn't wish to tell you how to run your website, however what if you added a post title that grabbed folk's attention?
I meаn "Vicious Little Darlings by Katherine Easer - ARC Review" is κinda bοring.
Yοu shoulԁ glance at Yahoo's front page and see how they write post headlines to grab people to click. You might add a related video or a picture or two to grab people interested about what you've got to say.
Just my opinion, it might make your blоg a littlе livelier.

Beсauѕe of this the casino does have an edge over the playеr, however in Blackjack іt
is more of а psychologіcal edge rаther than a mathematіcal edge, aѕ they stіll retain the sаme odds of winning or loѕing.
