WHAT I'M READING

CAMP CONFIDENTIAL -- BOOK ONE: NATALIE'S SECRET by Melissa J. Morgan



About the book:
Eleven-year-old Natalie Goode is a total city girl, way more interested in fresh sushi than fresh air.  So she's less-than-thrilled when her mother ships her off to sleepaway camp for the summer.  Before long, though, Natalie notices that despite the sticky mess-hall benches and the spiders in the shower stalls, there are some pretty cool girls at Camp "Lake-puke."  If she can loosen up and let them in, she might just enjoy herself -- unless, of course, the secret that she's been keeping gets in her way....

My thoughts:
This is book one of a series I read some time ago.   It's billed as a children's book and I guess it is, but the story line is excellent.  The characters are well done, fleshed out, and you feel as if you have gone to summer camp and are in bunk 3C with them.  Some you hate, some you love and some you just aren't sure of.  A blast from the past and a good quick summer read.  Highly suggest it for the pre-teen girl in your family.
