Review: A Map for Wrecked Girls by Jessica Taylor (Spoiler-Free)
Overall, this book had very powerful moments, but also I don't think it's one that's going to stick with me for a long time. I also went into it expecting it to be more of a thriller, and while the survivalist aspects were often thrilling, the "mystery" itself was not what I expected it to be. With that being said, I still really did enjoy my time reading this book, especially with the development of the characters. It definitely wasn't the book's fault that I expected it to be something different. The writing was also very cinematic and I could see this being a really good movie. Overall, I would recommend this book to someone looking for a hard-hitting contemporary with survivalist aspects.NOT for someone looking to read a fast-paced thriller. Side note: A+ for the creativity of the cover!! I didn't even notice the shoreline on the bottom until like halfway through the book and it makes it 1000% better. :)
