Book Review: The Girls-Emma Cline



3.5 Stars

You know the feeling after you finish a book and you don't know whether you liked this book or not? I mean you love the plot but you feel something is missing but then you feel the story is complete. You love the writing and the language used in the book but it feels like the author didn't do a lot of effort to make you live the story like it was real. That's what I'm feeling right now about this book. But anyways I loved it and I think everybody from all ages must read this book because it talks to everyone, from young adults to adults and parents to be specific. Parents must read this book so they can prevent their teen children from going to a dangerous path if the signs presented themselves, like what happened to Evie Boyd.

The story is about Evie Boyd who is 14 years old, feeling lost and un-noticed after her parents got divorces, her father living with a young woman, her mother trying her luck with a new man and her friend having a quarrel with her over something silly. Evie meets Suzanne who is part of a cult run by Russell Hadrick who is welcoming lost girls not that much older from her and making them feel special, control their minds with his charisma, and making them do stuff that doesn't seem ok to others but to them, they can't see or feel it. They are lost and think they've found their right path or way with Russell but they were all wrong.

Evie wanted to find love and confidence with Russell but Suzanne gave her that. She felt getting close to her day after day. Even when she left the ranch for days, she came back for Suzanne and not Russell.

I don't want to spoil the story for you but I loved the ending of this book and found it very special and unique
