COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Beautiful Satire submitted by Fevvers - STAR473 on June 30, 2015, 4:01am Unabridged audio version of the book Beauty Queens read wonderfully by the author herself, Libba Bray.

The humor ranges from straight-faced absurdism to a bit of slapstick, but the whole story is a sharp satire while also managing to convey sincere feminist messages. Beauty pageant contestants find themselves marooned and proceed to demonstrate character and talents they never would have during the normal course of their association with each other.
