Items related to Beware That Girl
The Haves. The Have-Nots. Kate O'Brien appears to be a Have-Not. Her whole life has been a series of setbacks she's had to snake her way out of-some more sinister than others. But she's determined to change that. She's book smart. She's street-smart. Oh, and she's also a masterful liar. As the scholarship student at the Waverly School in NYC, Kate has her work cut out for her: her plan is to climb the social ladder and land a spot at Yale. She's already found her "people" among the senior class "it" girls-specifically in the cosseted, mega-wealthy yet deeply damaged Olivia Sumner. As for Olivia, she considers Kate the best friend she's always needed, the sister she never had. When the handsome and whip-smart Mark Redkin joins the Waverly administration, he immediately charms his way into the faculty's and students' lives-becoming especially close to Olivia, a fact she's intent on keeping to herself. It becomes increasingly obvious that Redkin poses a threat to Kate, too, in a way she can't reveal-and can't afford to ignore. How close can Kate and Olivia get to Mark without having to share their dark pasts?

Review:
Combines a "Gossip Girl "milieu with the unsettled psychological terrain of "Gone Girl. (Publishers Weekly)
Has all the makings of a crossover hit. It's smart, dark, entertaining, and unpredictable. (starred review Quill & Quire)
A sharp narative whose twists will demand an instant reread. "Beware That Girl "is a terrifying chess game, and Toten is the ultimate player. (National Reading Campaign (Canada))
A tense teen thriller. (Kirkus)
The author skillfully reveals gritty and tantalizing details in meager bites, keeping readers captivated. A must-have for teen fans of psychological thrillers such as Gillian Flynn's Gone Girl. (SLJ)
A solid page-turner with two compelling main characters. Readers will be absorbed by this gripping, sometimes disturbing drama. (The Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books)
So I just finished this book with a scrunched up smirk on my face. You know the one? The one that means it was more than good. Beware That Girl is clever, twisted, dark and dangerous. It's secretive, frustrating, obsessive, disillusioned and utterly captivating. It's original and feisty and to be fair does upset you at times as there is a dark, sensitive and in-depth underlining to the plot throughout the read that will definitely shock you. Which has been written with respect and care which I appreciate when faced with what can be an uncomfortable part of a book. This is one fantastic read!A book that leaves you dangling by a thread over the wealthy New York skyline waiting for you to drop deep fast and hard to your death. Fabulous! (The Book Geek Wears Pajamas)
The tension in this psychological thriller builds very quickly...watch out for the film version coming very soon... (Daily Mail)
Beware That Girl is subtle, cleverly constructed and beautifully written. I desperately wanted both Kate and Olivia to come out of their problems unscathed even though that seemed a very tall order at times. This is a psychological thriller of the highest order. (Crime Review)
A cracking, tangled thriller (Armadillo Magazine)
