The School for Dangerous Girls

Catie G. read The School for Dangerous Girls, and her opinion of the book was that she wouldn’t recommend it to anyone. She summarized the book as “weird and creepy”.

            These bad, and Catie says they are really bad, not just pretend-bad, girls are put in this dirty, old, strange mansion for a year to make them model citizens again. The teachers do odd tests to the girls and play cruel mind games. As the book jacket says, "Some girls are meant to get better . . . and some girls are meant to stay forever."

            Catie stuck it out, though, and finished the book. She said the ending was very predictable, but at the same time it seemed fuzzy and unclear. (For another point of view, look at Teenreads. They agree with Catie about the ending.)
