“Evocative prose and a palpably foreboding atmosphere complement Lux’s present-tense narration, which Hawkins studs with flashbacks exposing the secrets, lies, and betrayals that brought each character to this point. Danger and interpersonal drama abound, with a slew of outrageous twists adding to the fun. A soapy, claustrophobic page-turner.”––Kirkus
“Hawkins twists revenge, madness, and an increasingly menacing setting into a cleverly plotted nightmare in paradise. A must-read for fans of Ruth Ware.”––Booklist (starred)
“With a gothic sense of foreboding and plenty of dark secrets…the plot builds to an explosive conclusion. Hawkins uses the tensions among her young, beautiful characters to take a look at the intersections of class and gender, but there are no innocent people in this treacherous paradise. Fans of the film The Beach and television’s Lost will be enthralled.”––Shelf Awareness
“After reinventing Jane Eyre in The Wife Upstairs, Rachel Hawkins is giving Agatha Christie’s And Then There Were None a modern twist in Reckless Girls.”––PopSugar
“This fun and exciting tale of suspense that happens to be both topical and tropical…Hawkins keeps the fun, engaging writing style of The Wife Upstairs, but gives readers a totally different experience with Reckless Girls―a darker tone with higher stakes, more tension, and much edgier characters.”––The Nerd Daily
