Summer Camp Memories (137)
HONOR GIRL by Maggie Thrash
The summer she is fourteen, Maggie goes to summer camp like always, but this year she finds herself attracted to an older, female counselor, who may feel the same way...but will they ever be able to tell each other? Because of the setting of an all-girl summer camp, there are lots of illustrations of girls who can sometimes look very similar, so some of the minor characters are harder to tell apart. However, that is the only criticism of this passionate graphic memoir about first love with an ending to make readers gush with feelings. (Candlewick, 2015)
