5.0

This was such a fun, cohesive anthology with such an interesting premise: a collection of teenage "delinquents" dropped into the middle of the woods and expected to work together to find their way back to camp as part of "bettering themselves." 

Each character's stories are told in two parts and I found each of them really interesting, emotional, and compelling.

On a lot of levels, I admire this book as both a writer and a reader.
