The Yonahlossee Riding Camp for Girls by Anton DiSclafani
3.0
Critical reviews of this book point out that the main character doesn't learn from her mistakes. Thea has been sent away from her home in Florida to an equestrian girls' boarding school in the North Carolina mountains. It's the 1930s, mid-Depression, and she is 15 years old. It's pretty obvious that she has done something forbidden and disgraceful - and it's also pretty obvious that means sex.
I enjoyed the descriptions and plot featuring the school and the other students. Thea's character is strongly equated with freedom - the freedom she feels while riding especially - and also recklessness.
