Review: Barbie Girl - Book #1 Baby Doll Series - Heidi Acosta - November 2012 This is a book that I have had on my kindle for years and I brought it originally as I loved the cover. Barbie Girl by Heidi Acosta is an Edgy YA novel and shows readers not to judge others by what they look like on the exterior as in this book we have two female leads Barbie and Katie.

One night Harper's dad pushes her too far and lashes out more violently than ever, Arsen rushes in to protect Harper and Harper's dad ends up dead. Arsen is then arrested . The next part of the story is Arsen in prison and Harper religiously visiting hi...
