SYNOPSIS
Westworld meets The Handmaid's Tale in this stunning fantasy adventure from debut author Charlotte Nicole Davis.
Aster, the protector
Violet, the favorite
Tansy, the medic
Mallow, the fighter
Clementine, the catalyst
THE GOOD LUCK GIRLS
The country of Arketta calls them Good Luck Girls--they know their luck is anything but. Sold to a "welcome house" as children and branded with cursed markings. Trapped in a life they would never have chosen.
When Clementine accidentally murders a man, the girls risk a dangerous escape and harrowing journey to find freedom, justice, and revenge in a country that wants them to have none of those things. Pursued by Arketta's most vicious and powerful forces, both human and inhuman, their only hope lies in a bedtime story passed from one Good Luck Girl to another, a story that only the youngest or most desperate would ever believe.
It's going to take more than luck for them all to survive.

MY REVIEW
To start off my review, I'd like to thank the publisher for sending me a free copy. I was super interested in reading this when I first heard about it and I'm so excited that I got to participate in this tour. The synopsis initially intrigued me, but I still wasn't sure what to expect going into this book.
One of the great aspects of this book is that it has a very Western feel to it. I feel like I haven't really read any Western YA's, like, ever so this is definitely a breath of fresh air. The setting and overall idea of this story are also super unique. The best part of this book, though, is probably the strong bonds between the characters. I love familial-feeling bonds where characters would do anything for each other and this book definitely wasn't lacking on that aspect. The plot was also intriguing. I love books where characters are traveling or on the run from something. The tension always seems to be pretty high in books like that and this was no exception.
Overall, this was a pretty good book. I think a lot of people will enjoy it and I'm just grateful that I got to be a part of this tour.

PRAISE
“Don't underestimate the girls in the Arkettan welcome houses because you might just lose your life. Davis' The Good Luck Girls is a dust-filled, bloody fairytale set in a menacing world haunted with the reminder―the price of freedom is high, but it's worth fighting for at all costs. Rise up, teen readers!” ―Dhonielle Clayton, New York Times bestselling author of The Belles
