Chronicle Conducive To Books The List

An intense look at the rules of high school attraction - and the price that's paid for them. It happens every year. A list is posted, and one girl from each grade is chosen as the prettiest, and another is chosen as the ugliest. Nobody knows who makes the list. It almost doesn't matter. The damage is done the minute it goes up. This is the story of eight girls, freshman to senior, "pretty" and "ugly." And it's also the story of how we see ourselves, and how other people see us, and the tangled connection of the two.

Criticism About Books The List

So, I wanted to really, really like this book, but the ending was so abrupt that I just can't. Every year in this high school, a list comes out naming the prettiest and ugliest girls in each grade. The List deals with the fallout of this list over the next week. But is it really just over the course of one week?Being listed as the prettiest junior encourages one girl's budding eating disorder - which is also wreaking havoc on her relationship with her younger sister. This isn't something that

First of all, wow.This book was so.. what's the word.. Teenage! Suited me so much. It deserves my 4 stars! I wanted to know who wrote the list. If they didn't reveal who did I wouldn't have given it 4 stars.There were 2 girls for each grade. And eight girls on the list altogether. My favourite was probably Margo Gable. She was the prettiest senior. She used to be pals with Jennifer Briggis until they fell apart in eight grade. Now Jennifer has come back and now Margos chance for homecoming queen

2.5 stars. This book had a lot of potential, but was ultimately ruined by a focus on too many topics at once. The List is about standards of beauty and how they play into the friendships between girls. I liked the message the author was trying to get across. Unfortunately, the author touches on too many topics without adequate development or closure. In fact, the ending barely closes off anything. As an example, the author is clearly trying to call out slutshaming. Unfortunately, there are many

That's how inside jokes usually are. Funny to those inside, annoying as shit to the rest of the world. Siobhan Vivian, The ListThis is going to be a tough book to review. I say that because for most of the book I thought it was going to be five stars. I loved it..until the end. And if you have read this I am sure you will guess my complaint because I have read several reviews that all mention what I am going to mention.So this book is from the POV of eight different High School girls. Every

*I'm in a minority here. A big, lonely minority*You know that annoying plot mountain concept? The fact that a story has a beginning, middle, and end? Here's a little demo:Yeah, well this book has NONE OF IT. Well, maybe I'm being a bit harsh. It had a prolonged intro. I was waiting for almost two hundred pages for it to be over. Some books start their rising action at twenty friggin' pages and this book HAS NONE. You get to know the character's problems and... and... and... literally NOTHING

Only read Bridgette's story. All I'll say is the author did a brilliant job of capturing the mind of a teenager and the sorts of issues she experienced.

This book was tough to read
