Rendition To Books From Bad to Cursed (Bad Girls Don't Die #2)
Alexis is the last girl you'd expect to sell her soul. She already has everything she needs--an adorable boyfriend, the perfect best friend, and a little sister who's finally recovering after being possessed by an evil spirit, then institutionalized.Alexis is thrilled when her sister joins a club; new friends are just what Kasey needs. It's strange, though, to see how fast the girls in The Sunshine Club go from dorky and antisocial to gorgeous and popular. Soon Alexis learns that the girls have pledged an oath to a seemingly benevolent spirit named Aralt. Worried that Kasey's in over her head again, Alexis and her best friend Megan decide to investigate by joining the club themselves. At first, their connection with Aralt seems harmless. Alexis trades in her pink hair and punky clothes for a mainstream look, and quickly finds herself reveling in her newfound elegance and success.
Instead of fighting off the supernatural, Alexis can hardly remember why she joined in the first place. Surely it wasn't to destroy Aralt...why would she hurt someone who has given her so much, and asked for so little in return?

I enjoyed this much more than the first book in the series, Bad Girls Don't Die. More original and less predictable. It has some similar plot points and haunting feel to The Craft. That's obviously a huge positive.The protagonist is cursed and confused for a huge chunk of this book. It made the narration and progression of the story interesting and original. Ultimately, I was disappointed with the way we made it to the climax. Alexis clearly didn't know how to get herself out of this situation,*4.5 stars*I really like this series! At first, the premise made me roll my eyes. Kasey knows better than to get involved in anything supernatural! Come on! But I was swept away with the story, and found it to be just as compelling as Bad Girls Don't Die. This one ends on a bit of a cliff-hanger, so I'm eager to find out what happens in the final book.
3.5 starsFinally finished this! This book was cool and different. I like different. Spooky? It was spooky but not as much as the first, besides seriously what could be creepier then dolls? So if you've survived that one with joy, then you'll survive this one with bliss! I was really into the book almost all the way... But then I got Heir of Fire and you can figure out the rest:) so this book is pretty grabbing. I really wish Katie Alender was better at writing romance. It would make her story's
(This review can also be found on my blog: The (Mis)Adventures of a Twenty-Something Year Old Girl).After reading the first book in this series, Bad Girls Don't Die, I knew I had to read From Bad to Cursed.

This book turned out to be amazing just like the first.Alexis and her little sister are back in this second book in the Bad Girls Don't Die
This and other reviews can be found on Reading Between ClassesCover Impressions: This cover fits really well with the first in the series. The girl has a seriously intense and chilling stare and begs the reader to ask whether she is emerging from the door or protecting what is within. While her expression is dark and menacing, her outfit is sweet and child-like, presenting a wonderful contrast. The scroll work on these covers always adds a delicate detail that adds interest. The Gist: Alexis has

Blending horror and humor, From Bad To Cursed is sure to be unforgettable. Taking all the amazing elements of the first installment and amping up the stakes for this newest addition, it is the perfect novel to read just after dark, with every single light in the house on. From it's characters to it's break-neck plot, From Bad To Cursed is original and yet, somehow, completely familiar.I mentioned before in my review of the first novel, Bad Girls Don't Die, that horror novels are tricky to pull
