Hey Everyone,
I am going to review the book "The Girls," by Emma Cline. This is Emma Cline's debut novel and it is hot off the press, just published today June 14, 2016 by Random House Publishing Group. For those of you who are interested in purchasing a copy of this book CLICK HERE. This book is about Evie, a teenager, who is coming of age in the 1960's. It is about her friendship and relationships with a group of radical hippies, Suzanne and Russell. Evie's friendship comes to a tipping point as her life almost gets torn apart by violence. It asks the questions of what if? What would I have done?
Overall I rated this book four stars out of five. This was an amazing debut novel. It captured the times of the late 1960's with so much precision I thought I had taken a time machine back there. But most importantly it captured the coming of age of a female teenager Evie so accurately that I thought I was inside Evie's body. Emma Cline certainly brought this book to life. And I am looking forward to reading more by Emma Cline.
I would like to thank Netgalley, Emma Cline, and Random House Publishing Group for giving me the opportunity to read this book in exchange for an honest review.
Until the next page,
Jill
