Dangerous Girls is one of those books that completely took me by surprise. I went into it thinking that it would be a book mostly about teenagers partying it up in Aruba with a teeny bit of mystery thrown in for good measure. I couldn't have been more wrong. Sure, this book does have it's party moments, but that is not at all what this book focuses on. Dangerous Girls is chocked full of suspense, mystery and doubt. I went back and forth so many times on whether or not Anna was the monster that everyone thought she was and that ending completely took me by surprise.
If like books that create some doubt in your mind about the stability of characters and mouth dropping endings, then you don't want to pass this book up.
