Published by Christy , 29 days ago
Robin needs a dress for prom. She works for a mysterious elderly lady ("Miss Catherine") who has a few dresses in her closet in the attic. When Miss Catherine learns Robin needs a dress for her special night, she allows Robin to look at the dresses in the attic, forbidding her to take the lacy dress. However, Robin sees the dress and wants it. It's perfect and exactly what she's looking for. She sneakily takes the dress thinking Miss Catherine will never know. Robin wears the dress to her prom and dances into tragedy. After her injury, the dress gets passed around, but seems to bring bad luck to all who wear it.
One day, before the old house in torn down and a store owner purchases some items from the house, including the dresses. She hangs to cursed dress on a rack. The dress awaits it's next victim.
I liked this book. I finished it in one day. The plot kept me turning the pages. I just wish I knew what awaited the newest owner of this cursed dress.
I recommend this book. It's a great read.

It starts out as innocent deception, borrowing not stealing of a beautiful dress for prom. Every girl who wore the dress has to pay a price that destroys the girl. From the dancer, to the nurse, to the genius, to the piano player. Rowena is the ultimate villain, making all the pretty girls pay for her birthmark. It's an intense story, leading the reader all over the city and with the dress glowing softly, beckoning even more girls to wear it's beautiful scallops. It's only a dress... right? Wonderfully written and with great pacing, it's been one of my favorites for years.
