Beauty Queens by Libba Bray
Tuesday, 1 July, 2025
A message from the corporation: Many of the Beauty queens do die in a tragic plane crash. But don't worry, the ones who survived the crash will be left on the island to fend for themselves while we, the corporation, ignore them (even though they are on the same island as our secret weapons compound hidden in the volcano). Because of course if we sent in a rescue party that would draw unwanted attention to the arms deal we are organizing with Momo B. Chacha, the dictator of the Republic of Chacha. But again, no need to worry, the girls will be fine; we don't plan to kill them and frame the Republic of Chacha for about 6 weeks. So they have plenty of time to build huts and infrastructure for food and water. They also have the opportunity to build long (ish) lasting relationships with each other and find their inner beauty as they battle the tropical climate and hostile wildlife of the island, hairy legs (ew), and misshapen earlobes, the horror! Oh wait, they seem to be revolting.
