Review
“Whip-smart dialogue and a fast-moving, picaresque plot that zooms from lump-in-the-throat moments to all-out giddiness will keep readers going, and it’s a testimony to how real these girls seem that the final chapters are profoundly satisfying rather than tidy.”
From the Back Cover
Three girls who couldn't be more different have one goal in mind: to get the heck out of Dodge.
Well, Niceville, Florida, actually.
Vicks is the wild child whose boyfriend left for college and isn't returning any of her calls.
Mel is the good girl in expensive jeans who just wants everyone to like her.And Jesse, well, she'll do whatever it takes to avoid facing a life-altering secret.
Armed only with Vicks's battered copy of a guidebook called Fantastical Florida, the keys to Jesse's mom's beat-up station wagon, and Mel's credit card, they're Miami bound for the weekend. That is, they would be if they didn't keep getting distracted by attractive hitchhikers and natural disasters.
This may be a trip filled with detours, but the girls are about to learn that when it comes to fun and friendship, the best part of the adventure just might be the journey itself.

A funny road trip adventure with depth
By Donna G
This book is FUNNY. Like, absurdly funny.
Evidence via first line:
"At the end of July, back when I was still fun, I bought Vicks two tufts of fake armpit hair from Jokes-a-Plenty."
And though the characters were strong, the plotting tight, and the narration nearly seamless, what really stood out was the dialogue. The conversations between these three girls flowed with such a natural and ridiculous certainty that I felt like I was listening in on a conversation I had with my friends in high school. (Though we never had to escape an alligator.) There were almost no one-liners; the humor came from the characters themselves, and the dialogue built upon itself to create that wonderful realism. This book nails the nuances of friendship.
The best part of HOW TO BE BAD?
It's a ball to read. It regularly touches on serious topics (as per the jacket copy, every girl has her issues), but it didn't weigh me down with them. Instead, I had a great time with Jesse, Vicks, and Mel as they drove to Miami. And here's the kicker ---- I am personally biased against road trip novels. I just feel they're cliche or something. Way to bust that particular prejudice.
Conclusion: If you're sitting at home bored and want an adventure with your friends but it's kinda not happening... read this book. It's almost as good as being there.

The perfect YA summer holiday read
By Z. de Ruiter
Mel, Jesse and Vicks are three teenage girls who spend the summer months working at the Waffle House. Jesse and Vicks have been doing so for forever and have grown really close over time, despite being very different and not even going to the same school. Mel on the other hand is the new kid in town and a rich one at that, so she doesn't have to work like the other two do. Yet she actually enjoys her job as a waitress and she is desperate to find that close bond she sees between Jesse and Vicks every day.
Vicks hasn't been doing so great lately though, she misses her boyfriend who has just started college and he's not responding to any of her messages, which is making her feel very insecure about her relationship. To cheer her up, Jesse suggests a spontaneous road trip to visit him. The only problem? Neither of the girls has the money for gas or hotel stays along the way. And that's where Mel comes in. Offering to pay for their trip if she can come along, the girls set off for an adventure that involves crocodiles, hot boys at a keg party and a pirate-themed hotel.
How to Be Bad wasn't what I was expecting at all. Instead of a meaningful and quirky story along the lines of The Disreputable History of Frankie Landau-Banks, this was a fun, feel-good novel not unlike road trip stories I've seen unfold on the big screen. Sure, the three girls central within the book all have issues to deal with and character growth to go through, but ultimately this was a really enjoyable, and at times a tad crazy, adventure – and the perfect fictional getaway for the summer holidays.
The book is written by three different authors, which is a really unique concept. Though while each of course has their own style, this didn't hamper the fluency of the story at all. They must've worked very closely together because though each of the characters had a distinct voice and personality, the overall feel of the novel was one of consistency and at times I forgot it was written by more than one author.
What was noticeable was the diversity of the characters. Especially fascinating to me was the overly religious Jesse, which was particularly noticeable in the beginning and is not something I've seen featured in YA before. I'm not religious at all, but her perspective was incredibly interesting to me and though I found her somewhat annoying at first as she so loudly exclaimed her opinions and harshly judged her friend, I grew fond of her over the course of the road trip and started to understand where she was coming from. While not the most likeable character, she was certainly the most unique one and in a day and age where people are highlighting the importance of diversity it was great to see something often underrepresented in YA fiction get a voice.
Vicks was the most stereotypical teenager, going through heartbreak and pining for her boyfriend, and Mel the most likeable and the one I felt I could easily relate to. Who hasn't been desperate to make friends yet feeling too awkward and shy to actually make this happen? Exactly. She was also often the voice of reason while the other two friends bickered along and I felt Mel was the one who really grounded the trio of girls during the trip. She may have been the most insecure at the start of the journey, but she has immense growth throughout the course of the road trip (which only lasts a few days!), which is really quite fantastic to witness.
How to Be Bad isn't a novel about being bad at all. Instead it's an exciting summer adventure chronicling the journey (literally and figuratively) of three very different teenagers girls who grow closer together as they uncover the true meaning of friendship and the importance of self-worth.

Sweet, light-hearted read
By Danielle @ What Danielle Did Next
There’s something about summer that makes me crave light, fun reads about friendship, love and good times so when I spotted HOW TO BE BAD with that awesome cover, I knew it was just what I needed.
Despite the issues that can arise with multiple POVs, I adore getting to know a variety of characters intimately and feel that I can get so much more out of my reading experience. HOW TO BE BAD is written by three different authors, each taking a character which really excited me because of the added authenticity of each of the characters’ different personalities and stories.
Set in Florida, HOW TO BE BAD takes place at the end of another hot, sticky summer. Jesse, Vicks and Mel all work at the Waffle House and couldn’t be more different. Jesse lives in a trailer park with her mom who has just been diagnosed with cancer and Jesse clings to the Christian beliefs passed down by her Grandma as a way of comforting her through her fear of the unknown. Her best friend, Vicks has recently said goodbye to her boyfriend, Brady a freshman at college in Miami who has suddenly forgotten how to use the phone and Vicks is determined not to be one of “those girlfriends” obsessing over the wording in every little text. Mel, the new girl is desperate to fit in to her new home which couldn’t be more different than the Canadian landscape she left behind. When a suggested road trip to Miami is suggested, the three girls are thrown together for a weekend of discovery, heartbreak, healing and friendship that will change their outlook on life forever.
HOW TO BE BAD is the quintessential, light fluffy read that will capture your attention easily. Written in a fresh and authentic style, it captures the essence of female teen friendships, the idea of the seemingly endless summer and the adolescent panic of what’s lurking around the corner as Jesse, Vicks and Mel contend with the idea that independence with all its advantages and hardships is looming fast and that it’s not always a good thing.
Witty and fun with real emotion at its heart, HOW TO BE BAD is a pacy read that I enjoyed picking up and could get easily absorbed in no matter where I was. Each of the girls had realistic, distinctive voices and I felt the authors really captured their individual characteristics perfectly. My favourite character kept changing because of this and we really saw all sides to these girls – their kind hearts, infuriating habits and myriad of opinions.
Jesse was the most contentious and difficult to like at first. Honestly I felt her character was the most stereotypical especially with regards to her Christian values which I felt was a missed opportunity to show that not all Christians are narrow-minded, up-tight and all about wrath and hell-fire as it usually depicted in so many books. It was the one gripe I had with the book but honestly it turned out to be minor as Jesse showed some real growth throughout the book and I could understand the fear and uncertainty she was dealing with. Vicks is typically impulsive especially when she lets her emotions get the best of her which leads to a wide variety of hilarious situations and her character ensured the plot never lulled. Mel was my favourite character, by far. Sweet and uncertain, I loved how each situation pushed her further out of her comfort zone and how her confidence grew as the girls fought, laughed, made up and forged real bonds on the road.
Entertaining, light-hearted and the perfect addition to your Summer TBR, HOW TO BE BAD left me with a smile on my face and a yearning for my own little road-trip!
