Light as a Feather, Stiff as a Board: Weeping Willow High Book 1
Light as a Feather, Stiff as a Board: Weeping Willow High Book 1 | Zoe Aarsen
McKenna Brady thinks her junior year of high school is going to be the best ever when she's welcomed into the elite group of popular girls at Weeping Willow High School led by blond, gorgeous Olivia Richmond. Prior to junior year, McKenna was known in her small town as the girl whose twin sister died in a tragic house fire, and she's overjoyed at the prospect of redefining her identity. She has a date to the Homecoming dance with Olivia's handsome older brother, and a good chance of being elected to student council. For the first time since McKenna's parents divorced, things are looking up. But everything changes the night of Olivia's Sweet Sixteen sleepover birthday party. Violet, the shy, mysterious new girl in town, suggests that the girls play a scary game called Light as a Feather, Stiff as a Board, during which Violet makes up elaborate stories about the future ways in which beautiful Olivia, brassy Candace, and athletic Mischa will die. The game unsettles McKenna because she's already escaped death once in her life, but she doesn't want to ruin her friends' fun. It's only a game, she reminds herself. But it doesn't seem like a harmless game a week later when Olivia dies unexpectedly in a violent car crash, exactly as Violet predicted. And something begins haunting McKenna's bedroom at night, leaving her clues that all seem to point to Violet. McKenna enlists the help of her cute next-door neighbor Trey in finding out exactly what kind of curse Violet has put on all of the popular girls in the junior class. As Violet rises to popularity and seemingly steps into the life Olivia left unfinished, McKenna and Trey know they only have a limited amount of time to bring an end to Violet's game before more lives are lost.

Ugh... I had to take a day before reviewing this book, because I was physically angered by the ending, to the point the book almost flew across the room! I know it was setting it up for a sequel, but the ending was super rushed. I loved the book until the last chapter, it was set to be a recommend highly, I was already recommending it as I read it, but I have to dock points for the ending. I am debating to read the rest of the series.

I just finished this and I'm not sure how I feel. The book overall was a wonderful book. It definitely kept me on the edge of my seat. However, the ending has me hopeful that there will be another part to it. Now time to watch the Hulu series and see how that plays out

GA_Bookworm07 so is this from the movie The Craft 6y
ashley_o13 @AvidBookWorm02 I am not sure. But the book is pretty good. And there's a series on Netflix now 6y

Just started this book yesterday, hoping I can finish it soon so I can watch the tv series and compare. 🤗📖

Quirkybookworm ??? Didn‘t this phrase come from a movie? Forgot the name of it but I remember the monies vividly. 6y
ashley_o13 @Quirkybookworm I think so, but apparently now it's a Hulu series but it was previously a book called "Light as a feather,stiff as a board". I was under the impression that this book was different from the original but I don't think so because the characters descriptions don't match those on the front of the book. Which are based on the Hulu series. But it's pulling me in so far!! 6y
