Three very different young women, still in high school, decide, independently, to share a cabin with another young woman and her grandmother for the month of July in the Adirondack mountains with no cell coverage, no malls, and none of the other advantages of city life. Each told themselves they needed to get away from their lives. None of the three city girls are prepared for what they find in the mountains. For instance, the grandmother decides she’s not doing all the cooking not knowing that two of the four girls don’t know how to boil water much less how to prepare entire meals.

This is such a delightful read. The author maintains the different voices of her characters throughout the book and in alternating chapters. While the book is being promoted as a book for teens, it can easily be enjoyed by anyone who loves a good book.

Even if you don’t have teens in your life, this well-written book should be at the top of your to-be-read pile just for the opportunity of reading a well-put-together story of the joy of new and very unexpected friendship and experiences.
