Girls Like Us is a powerful and inspiring novel about four teenage girls who are anything but average. Smart, confident, and independent, they’re the kinds of girls you root for – the ones you want to be like. Each has her own story, yet they all share common struggles and triumphs. From friendship to romance to family drama to dealing with bullies, these young women face it all while finding their way in the world. They’ll make you laugh out loud; they’ll make you cry; but above everything else, Girls Like Us will remind you that there’s nothing more beautiful than being brave enough to be yourself.’ My thoughts: This book was AMAZING! It’s about four powerful young girls.
