It's an impressive debut novel..The crew is awesome, each character is fun and their friendship just makes you smile...It also has hints of a slow burn little romance which just clicks for me... I couldn't ask for more.
This was an enjoyable read. I appreciated that the story had a female main character who was independent and capable in a way that didn’t feel forced. And that she had a pet spider.
This is a better-than-average immersive read with a likable crew. The author uses familiar tropes in a refreshing way..
it is full of cinematic scenes carried by an adventurous protagonist and spunky first person perspective chockablock with subtle humor.

Bio

Rae Lewis fell in love with stories of strong girls and fantastical adventures upon discovering Pippi Longstocking as a child. She's been penning bold heroines and exiling rude people to trees ever since.
Rae has lived in cities, towns and villages across seven counties, including London. She earned her BA American Studies at University of Winchester and her MA Creative Writing at University of Plymouth. These days she lives in a small Cornish town, amidst gangs of seagulls, minutes from idyllic beaches.
When not tucked away in her beloved study, Rae can be found binging on crime dramas and rich tea biscuits, and secretly plotting her next travels.
The Exiles is Rae’s debut novel.
