I have read close to 140 books so far this year which is an impressive if I do say so myself. I don't think I have come across a book quiet like this one. Poison Girls is a must read for everyone who loves books. Natalie Delaney is a superhero with a pen in my eyes and Ana and Libby are strong girls who you struggle between wanting to hug and wanting to shake for the crazy things that Anna does for the sake of popularity and the cousin who straddles the line of wanting to keep her safe and fitting in. At first I wasn't sure if I was going to like the story because it kind of reads like one big newspaper but in a way that made it more fun. This book is the story of young girls white girls who are getting killed by fentanyl laced heroin. This story takes an even darker turn when the story that Natalie is trying to write turns her into the prime suspect. I feel as though since this was based on true events it brings a more raw aspect to the story. Politics, Power, Drugs and Popularity should not over shadow that people died. I found myself feeling bad for Natalie because she wanted to save everyone and lost sight of herself getting herself into trouble. Over all this is a strong 4 star read that deserves a few hours of your time to read.
Thanks to Negalley to the author and publisher for my copy in exchange for my honest review.
