The Wilder Girls reminded me of The Maze Runner. I hated the Maze Runner.

I first tried reading this book a few weeks ago but couldn’t get past the choppy, disjointed writing so I put it to the side. I picked it back up a few days ago to find that the fragmented sentences were the thoughts of the characters but still, when the writing style changes it’s not much better. There are many unnecessary details, which is one of my pet peeves. I did like the action and the development of the main character. After finishing the book, I could not figure out the point of it as the story just stops with no resolution. The story had potential but could have been so much better if executed differently, and if it had an actual ending.

I received a copy of Wilder Girls from NetGalley for review. If I had borrowed the book from the library, I probably would not have continued reading after the first few chapters. I do feel bad about giving a negative review, but I must be honest, this book was not for me. Everyone is different and I do hope others find joy in it. Thank you to #netgalley for providing a copy to review.
