Pretty Things sounds like a great book to read in the summer, and that's why I picked it up.
We follow four teens: Charlie, Brie, Daisy, and Walker, who come together over the summer for a theater group. I enjoyed that it was told in alternating perspectives. That really helped make the point that we all think we have people pegged. We even think we have ourselves pegged sometimes. But people are fluid, ever changing, ever growing. People surprise us. We surprise ourselves.
That's really what Pretty Things is about in the end.
Great summer read? Yes, it was quite funny and enjoyable. But it is also a book that you take something away from.

*And as a lovely bonus, each chapter has a quote from a song lyric at the top (the credits to which are in the end) so if you like listening to music while you read, you've got yourself a soundtrack for each chapter. ( )

Brie is just a normal girl who’s insecure and is madly in love with her gay friend, Charlie Walker is falling for the lesbian girl, and Daisy who finds out the she isn’t a total lesbian. She and Walker fall for each other and he doesn’t want it to be like that because Daisy has a girlfriend. I choses this book because it looked funny.

this honestly has to of been the strangest book that i have ever read.
i will say that this book did hold my attention at best....but the characters were were...just so dense and it was just way to much. i honestly want to know how authors come up with character like these...an d if you read the book, then you wouldnt know either ( )

It was really good but i wouldn't recomend that anyone under the age of 12 and a 1/2 read it. Cause it can be a bit dursturbing. ( )

Sara Manning writes a wonderful book called Pretty Things about four very intersting teenagers. Brie and Charlie have been best friends since they were in grade school. Everyone thinks they seem like a perfect couple but unluckily for Brie Charlie's gay and is in love with a bad boy he's never even talked to named Walker. When Charlie drags Brie to drama camp they're in for one uproarious time. At the camp Charlie and Brie meet Walker (Charlie's crush) & Daisy, a punk bisexual who hates the world. In this mysterious love triangle things get heated and hilarious. I loved Pretty Things and it kept me laughing the whole way through. Written by a British author it's full of wit.
