The contestants of the Miss Teen Dream pageant are only concerned with practicing their circle turns, dance numbers, and benign answers to interview questions until their plane crashes on a tropical island. Now, with sequins and hair dryers scattered everywhere, the survivors face a huge dilemma: should they search for food and water or continue diligently preparing to appear on national television? The Corporation is counting on them to uphold standards of beauty and behavior, but can the girls count on The Corporation?

Just as weird and witty and hilarious as Going Bovine, but sometimes it felt like she was trying too hard for the jokes and the obvious message (girl empowerment). Still, loved it and would happily recommend it to 8th grade and high school girls and the right boys
Doesn't take itself too seriously. Author narrates her own audio book, and nails the character voices. It's a fun read if you're willing to have a Hunka Hunka Burning good time. Oh, and there are Elvis jokes.
Satire and thoughtful commentary in a like-totally-fun package! I adored this audiobook, and the author's performance of the characters took it to 11. Off to read more Libba Bray ASAP.
