Summary: The Girls follows Evie, an impressionable teenager living in 1960s California, as she encounters a mysterious group of girls and is drawn up in their seemingly glamorous lives. The closer she grows to the group, the more unpleasant it becomes, veering towards drugs, sex, and terrible violence.

Rating: ★★★★


Review: 

Like most of you I'm sure, I heard a lot of hype about The Girls when it was released last summer, but I didn't get around to reading it until I borrowed a copy from my mum. The story revolves around a cult based on the Manson Family - which I'd not really heard of before beginning the book.
