Sawkill Girls
by Claire Legrand
Get yo girl gang together and go slay some damn big-bad!
The first half of this book was fantastic… but by about halfway I was checking to see how much longer I had left. Not because I was bored, just because I think the length of this book really let it down – it could have been about a quarter shorter, with zero issues! It fell into the trap of over explination – while at the same time, doing jump-cuts that felt disjointed.
What I did LOVE was the explicit description of friendships and familiar relationships. The characters are great – the rep is great, love the girls lovin’ girls and the ace rep! I love chubby girls getting down and dirty, showing a bigger girl feeling and being made to feel attractive (cause, ya know, #fuckyourbeautystandards). The friendship are fantastic and the exploration of broken trust, hurt and anger that does not end a friendship, it just impacts it I think was handled beautifully. I just wish there had not been such a big case of over explanation of everything, because this could have been a much higher rated boiii!
