Tʜᴇ Gɪʀʟs Aʀᴇ Iᴄᴏɴɪᴄ

 

 This story starts off about a girl who has insecurities like any normal fifteen-year-old. How can she fit in? How can she be friends with the bad girls? What does she have to; do, act, speak, look like, and be like to achieve that? Nothing a little chole eyeliner won't fix. Meet Evie. A sort of girl that mothers warn their daughters about. My sort of girl. 

Right off the bat Evie let's you know that she isn't the most outspoken person. She also isn't one to trust her womanly intuition. Women's intuition is something that is really important to me, so the fact that it was mentioned in the book is great and I really like the way that it was portrayed in this book. Like many girls and women all over the world when we are told to ignore the one thing that protects us, but benefits others, it is something amazing to pay attention to. 

I love the cover of the book. It really matches the mood and the girls. 

Loved it!!
