90s culture. Sassiness. Sarcasm. Canadian. Graphic Novel.

Elodie gets forced by her Mother to work as a camp counselor over the summer and it is NOT what she wanted to do. This gothic delight loves Nirvana and rock bands, but instead is being forced to deal with people she didn't want to see (yuck, schoolmates... popular and NERDY school mates...) and munchkins.

Arrows are shot at everyone, and the fallout is hilarious. The kids swear and taunt Elodie, and it's hysterical. Star Wars and Nirvana references were stellar! LGBT characters gets this book bonus points! The magical fantasy element? WILD! There's just so many good parts in this book, including the little sassy red heads. Also: Canada represent!

It's like this book was MADE for me! Elodie is super sassy and sarcastic, and has a wicked inner voice. She could say mean things, but instead she'll pat those losers on the head and let them do their thing. Oh man, do I love her! I relate way too hard! On top of that, the kids are talking about sex and asking awfully hilarious questions (which totally is what camps do, I've worked at them - kids are crazy) and that makes this book more PG-13 and R rated. Oh the giggles I had reading what some of these kids had to ask and say...

To top it off, the art is colourful and cartoon-y. I totally dug every part of the illustrations in this book. The tone of the book and the fun of the art style really gave this book the extra 'umph' to top my graphic novels list!

Overall, this is a must read from this blogger/reviewer! I 100% love this book and highly recommend it. It's wild and fun and super sassy!

Five out of five stars!

Thank you to NetGalley and IDW Publishing for giving me the opportunity to pick up this epic book! Keep up the great work! ( )

The summer before university, Elodie is stuck as a camp counselor. She ends up being the leader to a group of foul-mouth, red-haired girls with tons of energy and questions. On top of all that, there's something strange about the camp, especially the chief, that Elodie can't quite put her finger on.

I first picked this graphic novel up because it was not only set in the 90's but also at a camp. I've only ever been to a few camps that last a few days, never the whole summer. So I like to read about what it would be like to be somewhere for quite a few weeks.

I adored the red-heads. They were spirited in a way that I'm glad they got paired with Elodie, even if she didn't know what to do with them at the beginning, they took a shining to her and it was like a perfect match.

The story itself was darker and a bit weirder than I was thinking it would be, but not in a bad way. Though, in all honesty, I'm still a little confused about it. I blame that on me reading it so fast because I was that invested.

Another reason I picked this graphic novel up is because I liked the artwork of it. The movement of the characters was always fun to see and the expressions on everyone was always clear and relatable. ( )

It was kind of confusing jumping into the story, but I really enjoyed how well camp craziness was shown through individual personalities. It's a good book for summer! ( )

I really liked the story...
beautiful teenage girl made to go to camp as a counsellor by her mother for a bunch of girls to maybe build some character.

Elodie is assigned to a group of notorious and rambunctious red headed girls. The story is adventure mixed with love, confusing feelings, and supernatural horrors all at once?

It takes place in the summer of 1994: with just two months left before college, Elodie is forced by her mother to take a job as a camp counselor. She doesn’t know the first thing about nature, or sports, of kids for that matter, and isn’t especially interested in learning…but now she’s responsible for a foul-mouthed horde of red-headed girls who just might win her over, whether she likes it or not. Just as Elodie starts getting used to her new environment, though—and close to one of the other counselors—a dark mystery lurking around the camp begins to haunt her dreams.

This book contains very mature and frank content. It is for young adult, but not every teen will be ready for this one.

One thing I didn’t like was the exaggerated expressions. They came off as always horrified, angry or anguished. The pretty girls were almost ugly with the exaggerated expressions. ( )
