Spiteful Punks: dolls and douchebags part one by Madeline Fay – Review by Opal Nelson

Spiteful Punks: dolls and douchebags part one by Madeline Fay
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Let me start by saying: this novel is not for the weak at heart. The first chapters were a bit difficult to get through- I should have paid more attention to the disclaimer that the dark themes may be sensitive for some readers- did this take away my overall reading experience? Absolutely Not!

The cards that Tillie was dealt made her character more relatable and had me likening her to the phoenix bird, who will be reborn from the ashes and signifies a journey through fire or adversity. I am waiting with bated breath to see Tillie finally soar. I am rooting for her transformation that I know is coming “I’ll show them all that they are messing with the wrong spiteful girl…”. Tillie, I am right there with you.

I have developed a love-hate relationship with the antagonists. I appreciated that the characters were individually described and then collectively depicting their contribution to the ‘team’. This is not the average run-of-the-mill novel, but a page-turner intricately and creatively written. Predictable- it is not.

My burning question is: Madeline- where is part 2?
