A review by jennifermreads
The Unbearable Book Club for Unsinkable Girls by Julie Schumacher

1.0

Why oh why won’t I put down a book? And how oh how am I going to find a way to tastefully Tweet and write this review??!!

Yes, all four girls are ones who would not normally be caught dead in each other’s company. The ploy of the teaser “who knew book clubs could kill” was just that: a ploy! It wasn’t about murder or death but about bullying, reading, and English lessons. I’m surprised any teen would finish this book or identify it in anyway.

Okay, just had a thought of a positive: the book does illustrate various English terms and ideas. So, should a teen be having trouble with English, this book may help them since each chapter starts with a term (i.e.: conflict, subplot, dialogue, etc.) and then uses a part of the story to illustrate the term.

This wasn’t even worth checking out of the library … and I grabbed it from the box of donations from the gal that writes reviews. I can tell why this one’s binding hadn’t been broken. Sigh … waste of time.
