Wilder Girls is a YA horror that is unlike what I've read before. This could just be because I've never dipped my toes into the YA horror genre until now, but nevertheless, Rory Power does an incredible job at fleshing out characters and bringing them to life.

I will say that her writing style isn't for everyone, but I think the prose really fit the plot and atmosphere of this story. It made her characters stand out even more. This book features almost all women and gives insight into the lives of teenage girls. You know, if those girls were stuck on an island and started to grow scales and a second spine. I love the raw and uncut introspective look at women and their motivations and desires. It made me feel more seen within the YA genre.
