Review: Imaginary Girls by Nova Ren Suma

Imaginary Girls by Nova Ren Suma (click on "Imaginary Girls" to go to its Goodreads Page!)

Chloe's older sister, Ruby, is the girl everyone looks to and longs for, who can't be captured or caged. When a night with Ruby's friends goes horribly wrong and Chloe discovers the dead body of her classmate London Hayes left floating in the reservoir, Chloe is sent away from town and away from Ruby.

But Ruby will do anything to get her sister back, and when Chloe returns to town two years later, deadly surprises await. As Chloe flirts with the truth that Ruby has hidden deeply away, the fragile line between life and death is redrawn by the complex bonds of sisterhood.

With palpable drama and delicious craft, Nova Ren Suma bursts onto the YA scene with the story that everyone will be talking about.


Brilliantly crafted, an amazing story, and an original story, what's not to love about Imaginary Girls? Ruby and Chloe are stunning characters. Their relationship as sisters are just amazing, and Nova Ren Suma's writing style captivated me and I couldn't give enough. After reading this, I'll buy anything that Suma writes. 


I highly recommend Imaginary Girls if you're looking for a great read, a gorgeously written novel, and probably the most original YA novel of 2011!


And how awesome is that cover?!?!
