What It Feels Like for a Girl by Paris Lees

4.0

I really enjoyed reading Paris’ journey, the only flaw for me is it’s very much unfinished. Obviously her story is unfinished but I wanted to read on, I wanted her writing style to show the growth that her life did. But I just didn’t match.

I absolutely loved the written accent, I found it really helped the flow of the book. It also gave a familiar touch as I couldn’t help thinking out this group and comparing the characters to people I knew in my youth (I’m sure we all know them, or are them).
Paris herself came across as still needing to work on herself. The writing style is so narcissistic and I really feel she much have changed her outlook on life after what she’s been through but it doesn’t reflect at all. Very much still writes as though she is the only person/thing that matters in the world. It’s a shame I feel there was too much focus on the toxic people and not enough on those very special few who were true friends and created the environment for growth.
