The Girl Most Likely
The Girl Most Likely: A Novel | Rebecca Sparrow
2 posts | 3 read | 4 to read
When you were 17, what did you think your life would be like when you hit 27? At 17, Rachel Hill was the girl most likely to succeed. At 27, with an Honours degree and a career as a travel writer, she wonders if marriage is the only thing missing from this perfect trifecta. But one disastrous life decision changes everything. Suddenly she is living back at home in her childhood bedroom - a room still celebrating 1987. She's also working as a nanny for a surly six-year-old, proof-reading erotic fiction and crucifying movie themes on the piano. With Su-su-sudio in the cassette deck, Rachel tumbles head first into a quarter-life crisis. As she revisits her idea of perfection, she finds that happiness is living the life you want to live, rather than the one you're expected to.

My yearbooks and old photos are packed away, this is the oldest I could find. It's from first year uni, so pretty close. #litsyyearbook
#bookishsuperlative Most Likely to Actually Read the Book for English Class. I can't tell you how many times this happened to me. In all my classes really, I was often the only one who did the homework, studied for the test. In return, the teachers didn't care when I skipped class (all the time).

JacintaMCarter In college I would have been "Most Likely to Not Do the Assigned Reading, But Still Ace the Test." I think I have authority issues when it comes to people telling me what to read. 7y

A book with a title that could be the title of a book about your life: Girl Most Likely. Rachel Hill was the girl voted Most Likely to Succeed when she was 17, but ten years later, she finds herself back at her parents' home at a crossroads in her life. I loved this book so much and totally related to not living up to others' expectations and deciding to make your own. #24in48 #Readathon
