I read this book in one sitting, and I think it's brilliant. Melly's character is wonderful, and she grows and changes so much over the camp. I love the conflict between long term friends and new friends and how Melly deals with being caught in the middle of it. It's definitely aimed at younger readers, but I'd recommend it to older readers too as a quicker read, as the story is just so powerful.
