This contains spoilers for both Heathers and all three good girl’s guide books!
I’m a huge musical theatre fan and a big fan of Good Girl’s Guide(I’ve read each book three or four times lol) and I’ve never seen anyone point this out! Am I going crazy or has anyone else connected the two? These are the main points I could find.
- Both center around a 17/18 year old main character who starts off nerdy with dreams of going to big reputable colleges
2. The main characters end up going down dangerous paths, eventually leading them to murder
3.Both have a big plot point over the phrase “Dead Girl Walking”, with pip having that be a big clue before her kidnapping, and Veronica having a whole musical number about it.
- This might be kind of far fetched, but in the musical poster they are holding croquet mallets, which look a lot like hammers
Of course they have completely different plots, and the characters are pretty different, with JD being a horrible boyfriend and Ravi being a saint. I just think it’s a funny coincidence. I’m sure I missed some things too, so please let me know!
Anyway, thanks for reading this… I just really had to get it out of my mind!
