Abby heads off to her usual summer camp, but this year nothing is the same. Her friend, Rose, is now a cabin assistant and doesn't have much time for Abby. Beth has gotten new piercings, is starting a band, and is a little too cool. Only Shasta, the new girl, really seems to want to hang out with Abby. Unfortunately, the other girls don't like Shasta. A mysterious illness prevents her from participating in camp activities, she claims to have a boyfriend who's a senior, and she tells crazy stories about her life that nobody believes. The only good thing happening to Abby this summer is meeting a new boy who actually might like her.
Abby is a likeable character that adolescent girls will relate well to. This is a quick, easy graphic novel that will appeal to many girls, especially those new to the genre.
Recommended grade levels 7-10.
