At first, I thought the formatting of the book was a little bizarre, but as I delved deeper into the story, I grew to appreciate the setup of the book and how it showed the eight different perspectives of each of the girls. It really lets you see all the different dimensions and perspectives of what it really meant to be the prettiest or ugliest of each grade. This was great, as it let you see how some girls chose to embrace their label with open arms and how some didn’t let the labels define them.

The book also allowed me to feel connected to Isabelle and to the time period. I liked Isabelle and her determination, so whenever she was hurt I took it personally and felt like it was my friend hurting. The book gave a realistic account of being alive during the Revolutionary War, which I liked.
