Wilder Girls by Rory Power
4.0

Going into this book, I had a vague idea of what it was going to be about. in a way, I was not at all prepared for what actually happened.

I really enjoyed this story. It was refreshing to read something in which I genuinely could not tell what would happen or if things would even end well or not. I enjoyed the speculation as to the "why" of everything the entire way through as well. I don't think I had any real clue about what was happening but in a good way. Nothing felt simply handed to me, nor was there any amount of explaining that took me out of the story.

I liked the characters a lot too. The core group of characters was interesting and distinct. Even the supporting characters that are introduced, however briefly they appear, feel relevant and have a point.
