Review: Gunslinger Girl

Gunslinger Girl
Lyndsay Ely
Published On: 1/2/18
Publisher: James Paterson, Little Brown
Audiobook: 11hr 37min (432 Pgs)
Narrator: Christie Moreau
Rating: 3.5/5

Serendipity Jones aka PIty our main character in this 2nd world war is a
seventeen year old sharpshooter. Pity escapes her old life in a commune from
an abusive father and arranged transfer marriage. What PIty didn`t expect to find
when leaving was a place called Cessation. A city of lust and wonder. Think Las Vagas
mixed with the Wild West. Pity joins a "theatre" performance of sorts where she meets Max.
A nice young fellow who she quickly crushes on.

A highly entertaining debut novel with corruption, love and adventures.
Strong supporting characters add depth to a story of Badass women .
The narrator adds another layer to this story in ways that reading the book
yourself wouldn`t give. Although the pacing is a little slow at times the build up is work it.
I hope to hear more of Pity Jones` adventures in the future but for now this is a Stand Alone.
