I am anxious and excited for whatever Rachel Hawkins brings us next! I was so impressed with Hawkins’ ability to keep the fun, engaging writing style of her previous novel, The Wife Upstairs, but give readers a totally different experience with Reckless Girls-a darker tone with higher stakes, more tension, and much edgier characters. How each person came to be on Meroe Island is told as their “before” and these background details are scattered throughout the book, as the story progresses. With its brutal, violent history this island certainly seems like an odd destination choice for a fun sailing adventure, but Hawkins keeps the reader guessing about every character and their motivations for being there until the very end, while the reader stays obsessed with what they will learn about these characters next.Īll of the young people in the story have unique backgrounds, and in the same way that some of them have defined their lives in terms of “before” and “after” a traumatic experience they have survived, Hawkins has cleverly laid out the novel in the same fashion. There is enough evidence of murders, past as well as present, to keep anyone from mistaking Meroe Island for a dreamy tropical paradise. Six young adults meet on an incredibly remote small island in the Pacific Ocean for a fun-in-the-sun getaway in a place that is off the beaten path-no tourists traps for these twenty-somethings! But events on the island start to make them realise that being completely removed from civilisation has its drawbacks as well.
