1. Bad Girls Don't Die

I am reading Bad Girls Don't Die and the Author of this book is Katie Alender. I am in the middle of Chapter 11 of 30 Chapters. The two girls Alexis and Kasey often see this light that glows in their yard and go and take pictures of it in the middle of the night. Alexis is in High School and she is a very anti-cheerleader. Her sister and her have a very love-hate relationship. Alexis has a secret-admirer at school. But otherwise she doesn't have many friends. I think that this is a very good book. It is good because she doesn't have many friends ,but she has an exciting home life-style. She hasn't had the most graceful time in school. Her parents have a dysfunctional marriage, and that abruptly got passed on to her. The theme is very anti-school. The author wants us to think about how much the girls life and her sisters life is different. Her sisters best friend is her enemies younger sister. The best character is defiantly Alexis and Kasey. They both have there good and bad points in this book. They have both grown to know mostly everything about each others lives. "Oh, please. I am not afraid of the Doom Squad"--"It doesn't look right"--"Thats because you're looking at it with only one eye." These quotes are very important because she refers to the Cheerleaders as the Doom Squad. and the second quote is from a Cheerleader named Pepper talking to Alexis and the third quote is Alexis' response. These are really quotes that show Alexis' stand point or view of the "Doom Squad" and how she's bold and doesn't care what people think of her. I don't really have many questions about my book because I reread the parts I don't get to where they make sense.
