Review - Here Lies Bridget

Here Lies Bridget
Paige Harbison
Release - January 18th 2011

Bridget Duke is the uncontested ruler of her school. The meanest girl with the biggest secret insecurities. And when new girl Anna Judge arrives, things start to fall apart for Bridget: friends don't worship as attentively, teachers don't fall for her wide-eyed "who me?" look, expulsion looms ahead and the one boy she's always loved—Liam Ward—can barely even look at her anymore.
When a desperate Bridget drives too fast and crashes her car, she ends up in limbo, facing everyone she's wronged and walking a few uncomfortable miles in their shoes. Now she has only one chance to make a last impression. Though she might end up dead, she has one last shot at redemption and the chance to right the wrongs she's inflicted on the people who mean the most to her.
And Bridget's about to learn that, sometimes, saying you're sorry just isn't enough….
This sounded like another Mean Girls type of book, and honestly I almost stopped reading it about 90 pages in... I was thinking to myself OMG this girl never stops bitching and whining... however, for some reason I kept reading on and I am glad that I did. This story turned into an excellent redemption story allowing the reader to get the chance to see what happens in "Limbo" and watching the Main Character Bridget learn how she has treated everyone in her life. Giving her a last chance to rectify what she has done and a chance to get a few final moments with her love.

Cute story, with a redemption in the end definitely worth reading.
