Girl Defective
Girl Defective | Simmone Howell
2 posts | 6 read | 4 to read
In the tradition of High Fidelity and Empire Records, this is the literary soundtrack to Skylark Martin’s strange, mysterious, and extraordinary summer. This is the story of a wild girl and a ghost girl; a boy who knew nothing and a boy who thought he knew everything. It’s a story about Skylark Martin, who lives with her father and brother in a vintage record shop and is trying to find her place in the world. It’s about ten-year-old Super Agent Gully and his case of a lifetime. And about beautiful, reckless, sharp-as-knives Nancy. It’s about tragi-hot Luke, and just-plain-tragic Mia Casey. It’s about the dark underbelly of a curious Australian neighborhood. It’s about summer, and weirdness, and mystery, and music. And it’s about life and death and grief and romance. All the good stuff.

Sometimes I thought if it wasn't for music I wouldn't be able to cry or laugh or feel giddy or wild. Music was a valve.

Late post but here's my pick for #girlintitle for #readjanuary. I've had this Aussie edition in my TBR pile for years, I remember asking a friend flying from Australia to get it for me. I still haven't found time to read it though.
