Pull in a sociopathic/psychopathic entity and anything can happen. All too realistic is the dynamic between the popular girls and the girls who want to be them or the ones who are swept aside as popularity grows. And in high school, anything goes right? A cross between Mean Girls and Heathers, we see the Barbies as the Plastics from Mean Girls or the Heathers from Heathers. Here she is in a YA twisty thriller where you never know who your real friends are. I love the way she writes and her twisty, macabre brain. Sarah Pinborough is one of my favorite authors. Why is Natasha wanting to be friends with Becca again? She seems to be the only one she can trust while she figures out how she ended up in these icy waters. She’s her own person, an outcast, friends with Hannah, the lowliest of the social spectrum according to the Barbies. After coming back from the dead, she befriends her old best friend, Becca, who she meanly disengaged from in high school, finding new friends of her own. Natasha is found dead in icy waters with no recollection of what happened. A big thank you to Flatiron Books for the advanced copies in exchange for our honest reviews.ġ3 MINUTES by Sarah Pinborough (out October 3rd)
