'Emotive, creepy AND funny. A quality page-turner' SARAH CROSSAN 'A new Cat Clarke novel is always something to celebrate and Girlhood could be her best yet' JUNO DAWSON Harper has tried to forget the past and fit in at expensive boarding school Duncraggan Academy. Her new group of friends are tight; the kind of girls who Harper knows have her back. But Harper can't escape the guilt of her twin sister's Jenna's death, and her own part in it - and she knows no-one else will ever really understand. But new girl Kirsty seems to get Harper in ways she never expected. She has lost a sister too. Harper finally feels secure. She finally feels... loved. As if she can grow beyond the person she was when Jenna died. Then Kirsty's behaviour becomes more erratic. Why is her life a perfect mirror of Harper's? And why is she so obsessed with Harper's lost sister? Soon, Harper's closeness with Kirsty begins to threaten her other relationships, and her own sense of identity. How can Harper get back to the person she wants to be, and to the girls who mean the most to her? A darkly compulsive story about love, death, and growing up under the shadow of grief. Cat Clarke is the author of Entangled , Undone , A Kiss in the Dark , Torn , The Lost and the Found and Girlhood . She is also the co-author with V. E. Schwab of the Sunday Times bestselling adult novel The Ending Writes Itself , under the pseudonym Evelyn Clarke. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Dimensions | 12.9 x 2.11 x 19.81 cm | | Isbn 10 | 1784292737 | | Isbn 13 | 978-1784292737 | | Item Weight | 1.05 kg | | Language | English | | Print Length | 352 pages | | Publication Date | 4 May 2017 | | Publisher | Quercus Children's Books | | Reading Age | 12 - 17 years | ## Images ![Girlhood: A darkly compulsive YA story about love, death and obsession - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61k07Fp8xVL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Format** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very good quality *by on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 18 April 2026* I’ve not read the book yet but I’m looking forward to it. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Sad but great *by on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 17 August 2017* I liked this book a lot especially all the twists and turns through between the friend group and it was sad to hear about the terrible things that had happened in Kirsty's and harpers lives. But I didn't like how it took so long to describe somethings but all together a good book. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ As described *by on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 16 September 2025* As described --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sn/products/48900017-girlhood-a-darkly-compulsive-ya-story-about-love-death-obsession](https://www.desertcart.sn/products/48900017-girlhood-a-darkly-compulsive-ya-story-about-love-death-obsession) --- *Product available on Desertcart Senegal* *Store origin: SN* *Last updated: 2026-08-30*
