Hi there!
Welcome back to Satisfaction for Insatiable Readers.
Today, we're joining Chapter by Chapter Blog Tours to celebrate the release of a new Young Adult title via Entangled Teen. From the sound of things, it's pretty harrowing, emphasis on BOTH words there, and as the body count rises, secrets are bound to start spilling. I wonder what they REALLY have to hide? So, if you're looking for your next read, take a gander at this beauty...

About the book
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.

Sounds good, right?
I thought so too...but I was curious. I mean, why Penelope? Why was she the final girl (in a sense)? Why does she believe she's next? So, I thought...why not ask? For your reading pleasure, MY INTERVIEW with our leading lady, Penelope Malone!

CHARACTER INTERVIEW: Penelope Malone
...from Pretty Dead Girls by Monica Murphy
1) Alright Penelope, why do you think this killer is out to get you?
It’s clear the killer is targeting the most popular girls at my school. Plus, the girls are all seniors. I’m popular. I’m a senior. It’s kind of a no brainer that I’m a target. I have enemies, so I guess I shouldn’t be surprised.
2) What do you really see in this physics kid, and for the love of Pete, what's his name? I mean, you say you're reluctantly working with him, but I don't know... to quote a famous teapot "perhaps there's something there that wasn't there before"...
Cass? Oh, at first I didn’t notice him at all, and I think he preferred it that way. But once I started spending time with him, I realized quick he’s smart. And he’s actually very attractive. He’s mysterious, and I can’t help but be drawn to all those secrets he carries so close. He’s super intriguing, but he also drives me crazy. Maybe I am crazy for wanting to spend time with him, you know?
3) Tell the truth. Of those that went before you (you, know in case you ARE next), who will you miss the least?
I don’t want to give any secrets away! I will miss everyone we lost, some more than others. And that’s all I can say about that.
4) While we're on that topic, who will you miss the most?
One of them is a close friend, but I’m revealing nothing. Sorry. *zips lips*
5) Our time is coming to an end (or rather YOURS might be), but before we go, if you do make it through this nightmare, what are your plans for the future?
Graduate high school and get out of Cape Bonita. This town is scary right now. I want out of here!
