I loved the writing style, prose was beautiful, I enjoyed the various narrative voices, and the stories were gripping. This whole book encapsulates that saying that girlhood is a monster. The ending did leave me begging for more though, but I know that the ending goes along with the themes of the book. Need to buy this book to get more into the details of the prose.
