synopsis: The fifty contestants in the Miss Teen Dream Pageant thought this was going to be a fun trip to the beach, where they could parade in their state-appropriate costumes and complete in front of the cameras. But sadly, their airplane had another idea, crashing on a desert island and leaving the survivors stranded with little food, little water, and practically no eye liner. What’s a beauty queen to do? Continue to practice for the talent portion of the program – or wrestle snakes to the ground? Get a perfect tan – or learn to run wild? And what should happen when the sexy pirates show up? Welcome to the heart of non-exfoliated darkness. Your tour guide? None other than Libba Bray, the hilarious, sensational, Printz Award-winning author of A Great and Terrible Beauty and Going Bovine. The result is a novel that will make you laugh, make you think, and make you never see beauty the same way again.

ReplyDeleteIt is US only, sorry about that :( Most publisher-sponsored contest tend to be. I edited the post.
Don't forget to enter my "What's New" Giveaway---I always keep those international! If you are the June winner, you could choose Beauty Queens! :D
This is such a cool giveaway! I really want to read Beauty Queens and love Philosophy products. Thank you for the giveaway!
