Take Three Girls by Simmone Howell, Fiona Wood, Cath Crowley
4.0
I haven't had much experience with cyberbullying, but I still really enjoyed this. Mostly because of Addie.
ADDIE: You are my fashion icon. I love you. Stay resilient and sassy. I think you're wonderful. And you're a good friend. Thank you for not going along with the status quo. And I liked how her sexuality was a non-issue.
The other characters were okay. Kate made me think more about electronic music, and her relationship with Ollie was the only good (romantic) relationship in the whole story. Clem was harder to like, because she was such a whinger, but I liked her character development.
I didn't care so much about the 'who's the snitch' plotline; instead, the interactions between the girls as they learnt to overcome prejudice made this story worthwhile for me. It's a lot of fun. Take Three Girls is as bright and vivacious as it's cover, about having the courage to not let the people around you define your life.
