Girl Defective by Simmone Howell
4.0
Everytime I read a Simmone Howell novel I feel like the borderline dork that has been allowed to hang out with their idol for the day. Trying to fit in a Melbourne more hipster than I'm associated with, entirely envious, but full of gratitude for her generous sharing.
"Girl Defective" will make you wish you lived in St Kilda, visiting secret raves with a more credible authentic taste in music. It will have you people watching at Luna Park and humming Paul Kelly's appreciation tribute "From St Kilda to Kings Cross".
Skylark is the soul searching teen minus the angst, Nancy, a soul searching "adult". Sky's younger brother Gully is a bandit searching kind of guy instead. With characters as vibrant and, defective I suppose, you can't not end up with a wonderful tale. Simmone Howell will have you making a new wistful mixtape and wishing you were as cool as she is.
