Today I am Waiting On...
Red by Alison Cherry
Felicity St. John has it all—loyal best friends, a hot guy, and artistic talent. And she’s right on track to win the Miss Scarlet pageant. Her perfect life is possible because of just one thing: her long, wavy, coppery red hair.
Having red hair is all that matters in Scarletville. Redheads hold all the power—and everybody knows it. That’s why Felicity is scared down to her roots when she receives an anonymous note:
I know your secret.
Because Felicity is a big fake. Her hair color comes straight out of a bottle. And if anyone discovered the truth, she’d be a social outcast faster than she could say "strawberry blond." Her mother would disown her, her friends would shun her, and her boyfriend would dump her.
And forget about winning that pageant crown and the prize money that comes with it—money that would allow her to fulfill her dream of going to art school.
Felicity isn’t about to let someone blackmail her life away. But just how far is she willing to go to protect her red cred?

Hmm... to me this book sounds incredibly intriguing! However, I could see how it could go bad. Her mother would disown her? How would a mother not know her own daughter's hair color? Still, I am definetely going to read Red!
Nice! Doesn't sound like my kind of read but still hope you enjoy it!

Yes, I agree that her mother disowning her sounds dramatic. I am inclined to think she is adopted.
ReplyDeleteYeah, probably! Or, at least, I hope so!
ReplyDeleteI love this cover and will definitely be picking this one up...but I can't help to wonder why everybody wouldn't dye their hair read if that is an option.
