The Broken Girls by Simon St. James is about the search for truth even long after everyone else has moved on. It's about found family and the resilience of girls and women who have faced soul-crushing situations but rather than give in, they have fought to stay alive, both figuratively and literally. While a solid read, there were moments where I felt that the main character did not have to work very hard to learn information that was important in advancing the story. There was also the appearance of a character who Fiona meets in the alleyway of a church that I thought was really random. All in all, a good read.
