About a girl
Joanne Horniman
- Reading
- You could read it together or check in afterwards, focusing on how Anna’s feelings change and what each person seems to need from the relationship.
- Themes
- Trust and private information: Anna discovers that Flynn has a secret and wonders whether she knows her at all. The plot establishes that the discovery unsettles Anna, but not whether the story ultimately treats keeping the secret as justified or harmful.
- Love and self-worth: Anna fears she is unlovable before meeting Flynn; the two girls fall in love. The book’s stance on this remains unclear.
- Worth knowing
- The relationship includes loving and physically intimate moments. The level of sexual detail, and what Flynn’s secret involves, remain unclear.
