Page-turning reveals the wars waged every day between girls and their images in mirrors E. Lockhart, author of WE WERE LIARS Prettiest or ugliest, once you're on the list, you'll never be the same. It happens every September the list is posted all over school. Two girls are picked from each year. One is named the prettiest, one the ugliest. The girls who are picked become the centre of attention. The girls who aren't are quickly forgotten. Through the eyes of eight very different girls, THE LIST captures the high school experience with all the struggles of identity, self-esteem, and judgements. Whether theyre on the list or not, things will never be the same. What readers are saying about THE LIST THIS BOOK MADE ME FEEL ALL THE THINGSRaw and heartwrenching and authentic. I really feel like this is a book that any young girl struggling with her looks should read. I was awed at how Siobhan Vivian was able to weave this intricate story that involves some pretty harsh realities with a right amount of levity to keep me captivated. The storyline that the author has flawlessly created and that gripped me throughout.
