Overall, I enjoyed this one… this slow burn of a book was set at a summer camp and had a plethora of characters that added many facets to the plot! Can‘t wait to discuss it at book club next week!

While this book doesn‘t have all of the bells and whistles, boy is it beautiful and poignant. I fell in love with the characters and their individual struggles through grief and loss. This is a book that will stick with me for a long time to come!
