The Girls of Summer
by Katie Bishop
3.5 ⭐️
Thanks to St. Martin's Press for the copy of this ARC and Macmillan Audio for the ALC
Rachel and her friends are having the summer of their lives: they're teenagers, they're living in Greece, and they're bartending and partying the summer away. Rachel also meets Alistair and falls desperately in love with him, but everything falls apart when one of the girls ends up dead.
In a #MeToo-movement storyline, Katie Bishop delves into the dark secrets and obsessiveness, blurred lines, power and manipulation that can happen between teenage girls and older men. I wouldn't really call this book a thriller, but more contemporary fiction with a bit of a dark and mysterious element. I enjoyed this read on audio (Annabel Scholey does a fantastic job narrating), but would suggest avoiding if you have any triggers relating to #MeToo.
