At the exclusive Camp Forevermore, upper—middle-class girls, as well as a few scholarship recipients, are given the opportunity to explore nature and "rough it" in the woods. When Nita, Andee, Siobhan, Isabel, and Dina are unexpectedly left alone on an island when their counselor dies, they must do everything they can to save themselves and maintain their sanity. Spanning decades, this tale examines the lives of the girls before the events at Camp Forevermore and after. Each chapter is written from the point of view of a different character, with Siobhan serving as the narrator for the events at Camp Forevermore. Andee's sister Kayla, who does not attend the camp, narrates Andee's story, providing a unique point of view. The cast of characters are racially, socially, and economically diverse. Themes such as cliques, adolescent insecurities, and the pressure to fit in will resonate with readers.
VERDICT Purchase where realistic fiction is in high demand.
