I found the plot to be predictable and was no longer invested in the character arcs and hwo the story would resolve. I read all I needed to to get the point.

Those Girls is a complicated read.  The first chapter instantly hooks you in with atmospheric writing and interesting characters. I found myself devouring this book so fast and I would read big chunks in a matter of minutes. The characters are so relatable and charming, and you'll find yourself rooting for them all the way. 

Because of how fast paced it is, there is little character development. But, the main point is the plot, characters, and the twists. Each girl in the novel is so different and lovely in their own way, which is why I couldn't hate any of them. I have to deduct a star for killing off my favorite character. 

4/5 B-

This book was good. I was told it was dark, which for some it is but I almost wanted more. It got especially good in the second half. Great story but needed a bit more, I’m guess I was given higher expectations.
