My Book Review > The Girls, by Emma Cline

Either you love it,

or you hate it... I loved it. Not the creepy atmosphere behind the most horrible murder of four innocent people in a lavish home in California, but the detailed desription of the daily life of a teenage girl who's seeking for love and who deals with boredom... and the consequences. I could easily figure out and even feel everything Emma Cline described, Evie Boyd's feelings, the boring solitude of a teenage girl who realizes that girls' lives are like staying in a waiting room for someone, while boys are becoming themselves. The mix of childish innocence seeking for love,feminine shyness, total boredom, sexuual arousing... and, opposite to that, older men's greed and lust...
