I was looking forward to reading Gorgeous Grusome Faces. For me it was ok. It was a fast read and the characters were enjoyable. The relationship between the main characters was developed well. The storyline was good and I did enjoy the dual timelines. The author brought the dual timelines together very well. The story in the present at the workshop was good and had you wondering what was going to happen next. The book did pick up for me as it went along. This book is listed as a sapphic thriller and I was hoping for a lot more of that. I enjoyed the ending when everything started to come together and you learned more about Candies history. I liked how the friendship between Sunny and Candie overcame hard times and how they were there for each other. Overall I think young adults would enjoy this book. I would definitely recommend this book and would try the next book.
