I really liked this book! As a former camp counselor, this was a must read. It took a bit for me to get hooked on it at first. The beginning was a little confusing because of the constant switch between characters and the past and present. I do feel like a lot of people were introduced to the story quickly. The book also switched between story lines a lot and it can take awhile to get back to certain ones. But then I started getting very into it once I was getting the hang of the plot and how it was laid out and finished within a few days. The ending was good! Was hoping to finish with some clarity on the two main disappearances.

I really loved this book, it brought me back to my youthful summer camp stays. I gave it a 4.25 and not 5 because I constantly had to remind myself whose perspective I was reading. Don’t get me wrong, I throughly enjoyed the multiple perspectives, but had to really pay attention to timeline and character.
