This was a speedy and fun read that centers a group of 5 feminine characters and their camp counselor as the campers explore the wilderness and fantastical foes. There are plenty of interesting references to famous women from history. These will excite readers who know of them and inspire other readers to look them up.

Como se alguém tivesse pedido ao Wes Anderson que editasse algo entre Nimona e Adventure Time. Um mimo!
