Actually free from Kindle first) because the cover was so cute. It's a teen romance about kids at a summer camp for kids with emotional issues. I'd say it's probably more about platonic friendship and trust than a pure romance. It was fine, it filled the role of a brainless way to distract myself from real life, but my main takeaway was I am not the right audience for this. I know I say this every time I read a YA book but I keep doing it. Someday I'll learn. ( ) This cute, quick, book was a freebie from Amazon firsts. Zander spends the summer at a camp for damaged teens. All of the campers have some sort of issues, be it eating disorders, cutting, depression, or some other thing they are dealing with at home. Cassie is another camper there who eats diet pills as food and is so angry and belligerent that all have given up on her. Grover is worried that he will become schizophrenic like his father. Bec is a chronic lier but so underdeveloped that I'm not sure of his real purpose in the story. And that is my disappointment with this story. I feel like there could have been more to it. It just brushed the surface of so many things and didn't really delve deep enough. This story just did not have any likeable characters, except maybe Grover. It dealt with tough issues such as self harm, domestic abuse, mental illness, and suicide, amongst others. Other YA/Contemporary fans might enjoy this book more than I did, it was a quick read but in my opinion it was way too quick and could've gone more in depth into a lot of these issues. Overall, this is not a book I would enthusiastically recommend to others.

"According to sixteen-year-old Zander Osborne, nowhere is an actual place--and she's just fine there. But her parents insist that she get out of her head--and her home state--and attend Camp Padua, a summer camp for at-risk teens. Zander does not fit in--or so she thinks. She has only one word for her fellow campers: crazy. In fact, the whole camp population exists somewhere between disaster and diagnosis. There's her cabin mate Cassie, a self-described manic-depressive-bipolar-anorexic. Grover Cleveland (yes, like the president), a cute but confrontational boy who expects to be schizophrenic someday, odds being what they are. And Bek, a charmingly confounding pathological liar. But amid group "share-apy" sessions and forbidden late-night outings, unlikely friendships form, and as the Michigan summer heats up, the four teens begin to reveal their tragic secrets. Zander finds herself inextricably drawn to Grover's earnest charms, and she begins to wonder if she could be happy. But first she must come completely unraveled to have any hope of putting herself back together again." -- back cover. Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |
