The Girls

Emma Cline

Service95 Recommends is the home of the books we love and our contributors' reviews. The Girls by Emma Cline is about a young girl in the 1960s caught up in a cult-like commune loosely inspired by the Manson Family.

What We Say: “It's 1969 and 14-year-old Evie is an aimless teenager living in California. When she comes across 'the girls', a group of teen runaways whose freedom and don't-give-a-fuck take on life she finds captivating – events lead her down an unwittingly violent path and her life changes forever. As shocking as it is evocative” – Samantha de Haas

What They Say: “This book will break your heart and blow your mind” – Lena Dunham
