The Bitch Posse - Martha O'Connor
This book follows three girls Amy, Rennie, and Cherry; three girls who were “outcasts, rebels and dreamers.” (O’Connor) This book does skip around a lot but isn’t too hard to follow. Each chapter is told from a different point of view. Each girl is very different in that they all share different experiences. While reading, you may be able to relate to one girl more than the other. Are you the one who strives for excellence, but wants a bit of rebellion in your life? Or are you the girl who struggles with an extremely unstable family, but wants that stability back? Or could you be the girl on the verge of adulthood, who thinks that she’s ready? This story describes these girls as seniors in high school, and as they grow up into their mid thirties. These three girls have secrets; and these secrets are what ruin their lives. Will it tear them apart or bring them closer together? The Bitch Posse is a very dark and bitter story. This book was not only a mature read, but quite distressing at times. “The Bitch Posse is an anthem for friendships.” (O’Connor) It is easy to relate to in means of growing up. The hardships any girl may take are covered in this story; although they are pushed to extremes. The Bitch Posse may test what you think morally, but it will keep you reading.

This seems like a really realistic book and thats why I think it would be a good read. I like the fact that it is told from different view points. I also like that its about high school seniors because I can probably relate. It appealed to me because the title is intense and it makes you want to read about it. It also appealed to me because i like the quotes that Katie used!

This book seems like it would be an easy read. It seems like a book a highschool girl would read because you can pick up on the problems or secrets in their life. It would probably be easy to relate to for some people and interesting to get an inside look for others.I think the only part that would confuse me is them going back and forth in the age and the characters, but it seems like it would be a really good book!
this book seems like a good read for any teenage girl, since everyone can relate to at least one of the characters. Also, the fact that it is about high school seniors add to the relation. The title of this book sounds like the perfect title, since i know a little about the book. Other people have read this too, and all i have heard is great things about. It sounds like a great novel, that i can definately see myself being very intrigued with.
