Beautiful. Perfect. Dead.
In the peaceful seaside town of Cape Bonita, wicked secrets and lies are hidden just beneath the surface. But all it takes is one tragedy for them to be exposed.
The most popular girls in school are turning up dead, and Penelope Malone is terrified she's next. All the victims so far have been linked to Penelope—and to a boy from her physics class. The one she's never really noticed before, with the rumored dark past and a brooding stare that cuts right through her.
There's something he isn't telling her. But there's something she's not telling him, either.

Everyone has secrets, and theirs might get them killed.
Cover Review:
The cover is typical mystery novel cover, though considering the book is primarily YA, I wish the cover reflected some of that.
Book Review:
I'll be honest, at the beginning, I thought about giving up on this, once or twice. I just couldn't get into it. But then came along Cass Vincenti, and he's the one who added all the real stuff into the story.
Though the story was from Penelope's point of view, I just couldn't get into it until Cass showed up. Her character seemed pretty dull to me, to be honest.
After that, the story picked right up. There was suspense, and of course the romance. I read this book in two days, only because I had to sleep. I kept reading, first because I wanted to know who the killer was and then when I did realize who it most possibly was, I kept reading because of Cass.
I also loved the 'killer's point of view' snippets. They kept me on edge, and wanting to keep reading.
All in all though, Pretty Dead Girl was pretty reckless but a page turner nonetheless!
