Those Girls
Those Girls | Lauren Saft
2 posts | 5 read
Some girls will always have your back, and some girls can't help but stab you in it. Junior year, the suburbs of Philadelphia. Alex, Mollie and Veronica are those girls: They're the best of friends and the party girls of the school. But how well does everybody know them--and really, how well do they know one another? Alex is secretly in love with the boy next door and has joined a band--without telling anyone. Mollie suffers from a popular (and possibly sociopathic) boyfriend and a serious mean streak. And Veronica just wants to be loved--literally, figuratively, physically...she's not particular. Will this be the year that bonds them forever or tears them apart for good? In a debut novel that is raw, honest, hilarious, and thought-provoking, Lauren Saft masterfully conveys what goes on in the mind of a teenage girl and how often even the closest of friends walk the thin line between love and hate.

I feel like this doesn't get a ton of great reviews, and I can see why it isn't for everyone, but I really liked this book. I could not put it down. It was gritty and showed how dark and nasty high school and teenagers can be, but I was so invested in these girls and their friendship (or frenemey-ships).
I love Courtney Summers' books and this reminded me of her books a little.

I met Lauren Saft when I crashed Eric Smith's writers' club. Not only is her book a startlingly accurate depiction of teen strife, but it treats those problems with a rare respect and compassion. Based on her writing, she's super smart, twisted, and funny. A classic case of #booksrecommendingpeople
