The Girl From Everywhere Character Analysis

I received a free copy of The Girl from Everywhere by … from Hot Key Books in exchange for an honest review, this has in no way influenced my thoughts and feelings about the book. I heard quite a bit of conflicting thoughts about this one, some people didn’t like it, and some loved it. I think it’s one of those books that you just need to pick up and make the decision yourself. In saying all this, I truly did love The Girl from Everywhere and I am so excited to read more.

First I adored the …show more content…

Where Nix’s mother is alive and she doesn’t exists. But no one knows what would happen if they go.
I enjoy Nix as a protagonist in The Girl from Everywhere. She was easy to get along with and I sometimes laughed at her naivety, because it got her into situations that were entertaining. I loved her characterisation and seeing her grow throughout the novel. She is quite strong at the start, but she learns how to stand up for herself and the people that she …show more content…

Sometimes she calls him father and other times by his name and this confused me a little.
The romance wasn’t my favourite thing in The Girl from Everywhere. I am not a massive fan of love triangles, like I hate them most of the time. But it was different in The Girl from Everywhere. It was a love triangle of sorts –ish. It is hard to explain. I didn’t hate it, but then again I didn’t love it.
Kash was my favourite character after Nix. His just so loveable and I want to give him a big hug. He was full of sass and banter, and made light of situation, but was also good to have a talk with. The friendship that he has with Nix was truly nice to too see and yes you do end up shipping them eventually, but I loved that we got to see a friendship first.
One of my favourite things about The Girl from Everywhere is that it’s set in Hawaii. I love that place to bits and I am so intrigued and interested by its history, that this was just perfect to read.
The Girl from Everywhere is also hella diverse. I LOVED it. It was so great to see such a diverse cast that were intriguing, fun to read about and didn’t slip into

    *All in all I would say that this novel is definitely a good read. I found my self at times relating my own thoughts and experiences to that of the characters in the book. This is the very reason I would recommend that you give your class next semester the option of reading either this book or another. From my point of view, I think that most men can not relate to certain situations that occur, which lessens the overall significance of her writing.
