Wilder Girls by Rory Power

The imagery in this story is beautiful. The glowing hair, the spine, the blue crabs turning black … I could picture the visceral body horror and just loved it. There was some interesting characterisation as well - Byatt was definitely my favourite.

I was a little frustrated by the plot, though. Even though the concept is quite unique, I found the story very predictable. I didn’t always connect with the narration too, and the first half of the book dragged.

However there were some memorable moments and overall it’s an enjoyable book.
