"The Good Girls" by Sarah Mollo-Christensen follows the intertwined lives of two teenage girls, each grappling with their own challenges in a world that demands perfection. Set against the pressures of high school, the story delves into friendship, identity, and the quest for acceptance. As the girls navigate their struggles—dealing with issues like family expectations, mental health, and societal norms—they find strength in their bond and a deeper understanding of themselves. This poignant coming-of-age tale explores the costs of conforming to the idea of being a "good girl" and the importance of embracing one's true self.
