Girl with the dragon tattoo - of course! Really good book and series. Or maybe Amy Schumer's "Girl with the lower back tattoo". Not read it yet but it is on my list.
I think I'm going to use Fannie Flagg's "The All-Girl-Filling Station Last Reunion". Though the Fairyland series by Catherine M Valente is great fun and 4/5 have the word girl in the title.
Gone Girl by Gillian Flynn, Diary of a Young Girl by Anne Franks, The Girl on the Train by Paula Hawkins. I've read them all.
Aha! I know what I'm going to read. It's something I've been meaning to read for a while too. I hope the plural of the word is okay. If so I'm going to read Shanghai Girls by Lisa See.
I have just completed "Running Like a Girl" by Alexandra Heminsley. It is written by a woman telling her experiences with getting running (focussing on marathons), rather as a motivator for other women thinking of starting running.
I just finished "The Girl Before " but I can't recommend it. You'd be better off reading Amy Schumer's "Girl with the Lower Back Tattoo".
I have just finished "The Girl from Aleppo" by Nujeen Mustafa and Christina Lamb. I am counting it primarily towards the book about a road trip challenge, but it fits this one, too.
The All Girl Filling Station's Last Reunion Fannie Flagg is always good for a light read.The Girl With All the Gifts - a nice spin on the traditional zombie book
I ended up reading The Girl Who Takes an Eye for an Eye. I really enjoy this series and David Lagercrantz has done a great job taking over for Steig Larrson after he died.
Finally managed to cross this one off with Ghost Girl. One more book to finish to complete the goal I set for this challenge. And one more day left in 2017

I did end up reading this one. It was pretty good, with lots of fun characters and action scenes.
