The Camp by Karice Bolton

4.0

This book was a complete delight to read. I was expecting a fun summer read (very light, a little creepy, some romance) and it was that, but it was also very good.

(Note: I wasn't expecting it to suck, of course, but I was expecting brain candy.)

I completely adore Emma. She's smart, funny, sarcastic and completely capable. The fact that there's a potential serial killer on the island scares her, of course (she's still a person!) but whereas a lot of people would be nearly catatonic, she's determined to do as much as she can to help. As opposed to, say, curling up in a corner and waiting to die.

And Emma-and-Liam? Holy. Crap. THAT IS ALL.

I know this is supposed to be a standalone but I hope there's a sequel.

I've never read Karice Bolton before, but I definitely plan to seek out her other books (she's written two trilogies; the first books in both of those are currently free on Kindle and this one is 99 cents---99 cents, people!).

Highly recommended.
