I had the honor of pre-reading this book. As it was said to be an YA-suspense book, I wondered what I would find it to be. I got the idea that the YA part mostly meant that the story could be far more unrealistic than any other stories. I really had troubles believing what I just read. It was quite amusing, yes, but there was this voice telling me that everything went far to easy as the protagonist hardly finds any difficulties on her way through the story. It read very easily, at least the Dutch translation I read. I would say that is in nice to read between two better books or when you can't really afford to read a really good book (as you have to pay attention to something more important). I'm not sure yet whether or not to read the second part of the series! - Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Wonderfully wicked story of power, privilege and murder. Ariana Osgood is a sociopath who will stop at nothing to preserve her social standing among the upper echelon. She escapes from a mental health facility where she has been held since being convicted of murder by reason of insanity. Desperate to reclaim her old lifestyle she succeeds in escaping from prison and heads to Texas to find her cellmates' former best friend. The story really takes off after this point and is full of twists and turns which keep the reader guessing until the end. Great read, suspenseful with plenty of drama. I recommend this book to fans of Pretty Little Liars or Canterwood Crest
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5If you like the backstabbingness of pretty little liars you will love this book. The twists and turns will blow you away.
- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5I only read Kate Brian's books when I'm too tired to concentrate on anything else, so hardly expected "Privilege" to be high literature. Despite my low expectations, I found this book disappointing. Kate Brian's plot-lines grow increasingly ridiculous and implausible and, worst of all, there are some obvious repetitions and flaws that should have been corrected during the editing process, and weren't. This book is directed at teen girls, and I am really not sure that it is necessary to subject young readers to such seediness and violence in their leisure reading.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This book is one of the few (if any) of it's kind. How many teen books out there feature a murdering protagonist? One would wonder how this works, especially as those who've read the Private novels followed Reed Brennan's distress at her boyfriend's murder, only to find the murder was Ariana, the protagonist of Privilege. Why would people want to read a book from Ariana's point of view? Surprisingly, it works. The murderer perspective is so new that it keeps things interesting. Somehow, one finds oneself sympathizing with Ariana sometimes. Based on Ariana's thoughts, we have to believe she can't help it. This doesn't mean we agree with what she's done...it's just an acknowledgement that she has major control issues, to a mentally unsound level. The novel shows how far Ariana will go to get back the life of a socialite. I was frustrated with her for not seeing what was really going on the whole time. Then at the end, my adrenaline started pumping. Things get very intense. I recommend this to those who've read the Private series first. It's not necessary, but it could be confusing to see names pop up without understanding the story that came before it, Ariana's life before this book. Privilege is a spinoff of the Private novels, after all. I'm looking forward to reading the next one. Kate Brian's got talent for sure. Be warned that the main character is a sociopath. If you like reading stories that paint the protagonist in a favorable light, shy away from this one. That's what I like about this book, though. I hate boring characters and Ariana is definitely NOT one; it's also annoying slugging through books written by authors who try to hard to make the character likeable. This book is a glimpse into the mind of the insane. If you think that would make you uncomfortable, again: stay away.
