Girlhood is such a complex matter to approach and I was perplexed as to how to rate this book.
I generally enjoyed reading it but I wasn't touched to the degree everyone else seems to be. I saw a review that said that if you liked <We Were Liars> you would like this one and indeed the writing styles are similar, which is something I enjoyed.
My problem with this book is that so many things are mentioned, but most of them are not discussed enough, even though they are presented as major points in the FMC's life, such as her relationship with Mikey, Ellis and her mother, her father's death, her time with in the Seed House.
Other than that, it is surely captivating, even though I would strongly suggest checking the trigger warnings before picking this bad girl up because it can indeed be very triggering.
