Top Ten Mean Girls
Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted by
Okay, apparently I block mean girls out when reading books. I only have five this week.
1. Caroline Bingley from Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen: Stuck up, selfish, manipulative… She’s like the quintessential mean girl.
2. The girls from The Clique series by Lisi Harrison: Snobby little rich girls.
3. The girls from the Gossip Girls series by Cecily von Ziegesar: Snobby older rich girls.
4. Tori from The Summoning by Kelley Armstrong: Mean girl + supernatural powers = DANGER! I don’t want to give plot details away but this girl is a piece of work!
5. Sophie from Just Listen by Sarah Dessen: You know how sometimes mean girls redeem themselves by the end of the book? Yeah, not Sophie. I hated her just as much at the end as I did at the beginning!
Looking over my list I realize that most of the mean girls’ cruelty has something to do with insecurity or a boy. This seems very authentic to the teenage me!

I’m sorry to say I have never, ever read any of these books. But I keep hearing about this Pride & Prejudice chick and I feel like I need to give it a go.

I think I block them out as well! I sat down to try to make a list and thought of Caroline Bingley, and then I got stuck lol. So I didn’t do a list today. I guess I just forget about them once the story is over.

I thought about putting Tori, but I must admit I did kind of like her towards the end of the series. 😛

I think Caroline Bingley is one of the original mean girls. 🙂 Awesome pick
