Hello Girls is an intriguing combination of Thelma & Louise, Heathers and my childhood trauma (jk, but not entirely). The beginning of this book is actually exciting, when Winona was escaping from home, my heart was racing the entire time. I also really enjoyed the feminist revenge/men getting their comeuppance vibe in this. Unfortunately, the story is lacking in some regards. For one, I feel like the ending is way too rushed. The whole book is building up to an anticlimactic close. I also wish the protagonists' friendship were more fleshed out. Not just are there hints toward a certain direction that aren't followed through with, but I was actually wondering why they are friends in the first place. This didn't strike me as a long-lasting friendship. This could have been more of a banger, but I think it would make a great summer movie.
