great for LGBT and young adult fans
Independent reviewer for Archaeolibrarian, I was gifted my copy of this book.
Josie volunteers to help at a summer camp for disabled children. But it's the camp leader, Sam, who draws Josie like a moth to a flame.
Something must have piqued my interest with this one because it came with a young adult tag and I said yes, I would read it. And I did like! Not love but I liked it.
Josie, by her own admission, only at camp to have something else on her CV other than school. Paired with Lucian, an autistic teenager, she learns a lot about herself and her life; and that of those around her.
The draw to Sam, the camp leader, is instant and powerful, and Sam fights it a long time before they finally give into each other.
At the end of camp, though, Josie is in for a surprise, as were we! And I did like the ending. From what Josie was saying, about what she thought in years to come, I really wasn't sure which way it was gonna go!
BUT only Josie has a say and ya'll know what I think about that! AND it IS young adult, very much so. What Josie does say, is well written and well delivered. I quite liked Josie!
It's a lovely, easy read, great for young adult fans, and for LGBT fans alike. Just maybe not one for me.
3 good solid stars.

The magic starts here
I can't remember when I started reading Harry Potter, but this book started a lifelong love of reading. Even rereading this story as an adult, the magic is still there from the beginning to the end.

So much potential, but so much fail.
Cons:
Way too much vulgarity (tons of swearing, some adult content)
No depth of characters
I wish there were better world-building
I wish there were a more defined problem & solution (more definable problem could lead to a better ending)
Pros:
Cool ideas, even if poorly executed

Environmental message
This is one of the my childhood favourites. As an adult I now realise the importance of the message of this film - the effects of deforestation and the uses of fossil fuels on the environment. I love Tim Curry as the voice of Hexus and I especially love his song.
