Summary:
After receiving a vaguely threatening invitation to apply, Esme and her best friend Kayla find themselves as Counselors in Training at the same camp they committed a horrible crime at ten years prior. As mysterious figures begin messing with the girls at the camp, Esme soon realizes that the not-so-harmless pranks are tied directly to what happened that night long ago.
Thoughts:
Half way through this book, I was preparing to give it 2 stars and never think about it again. But 50 closer to the end, things started getting more interesting: lots of people had secrets, and there wasn’t just one bad guy anymore. And then I read the end. And it was insane. SPOILER: I’ve read lots of books where the protagonist is framed for the crimes of a villain, but i’ve never read anything that ends with the hero found with the weapon. Most of this book wasn’t great; i especially didn’t like the writing. But I think it was worth it to be able to read the end.
