Kate ★ (spillsandspoils) | 973 comments Bad Girls Don't Die by Katie Alender

Synopsis:

Alexis thought she led a typically dysfunctional high school existence. Dysfunctional like her parents' marriage; her doll-crazy twelve-year-old sister, Kasey; and even her own anti-social, anti-cheerleader attitude.
When a family fight results in some tearful sisterly bonding, Alexis realizes that her life is creeping from dysfunction into danger. Kasey is acting stranger than ever: her blue eyes go green sometimes; she uses old-fashioned language; and she even loses track of chunks of time, claiming to know nothing about her strange behavior. Their old house is changing, too. Doors open and close by themselves; water boils on the unlit stove; and an unplugged air conditioner turns the house cold enough to see their breath in.

Alexis wants to think that it's all in her head, but soon, what she liked to think of as silly parlor tricks are becoming life-threatening--to her, her family, and to her budding relationship with the class president. Alexis knows she's the only person who can stop Kasey -- but what if that green-eyed girl isn't even Kasey anymore?

Please join Megan, Alley, Lindsey, and I as we read this book starting on Feb 13, 2014! We'd love to have you! :)


Inês | 583 comments Oh...I wanna join! This seems really good :)
I have a love/hate relationship with ghosts stories XD The hate part coming from the fact they scare the bejesus out of me, the love, because I must me a masochist... :)


Kate ★ (spillsandspoils) | 973 comments Inês, it would be awesome if you join!! :) I totally get what you mean. The same for me with watching creepy movies!


Inês | 583 comments Me too :) I always think, "I can totally watch this movie, it will be fun!" The problem is after the movie, I almost have an heart attack every time I hear a sound, for example, caused by the wind XD


Megan Brooker Glad you can join Ines!


Courtney | 16293 comments I'll join in on this one too :)

Has anyone started?


Megan Brooker I have but I'm only about 25%. So far I'm enjoying it, I think the author did a nice job with some creppy undertones and some of the subtle things leave a big message. I also like the concept and how it's being handled. My only complaint is that the characters seem to be floating in space and I don't know what her plan is for them, thusly I'm having a hard time connecting.

I'm starting now!


Inês | 583 comments I'm starting now, too :)


Inês | 583 comments 47%! I'm liking it a lot, the creepy factor is really good! :)

I have read the first chapter and had to stop because I need to finish my school work for the week. I will pick it up later tonight!


Inês | 583 comments I'm done! I wasn't counting on finishing so fast, but I started reading last night and I couldn't stop!
How are you guys finding it? :)
