About This Book

A group of teenage girls travel by steamer to a lakeside summer camp, where new friendships, rivalries, and informal hierarchies quickly emerge. The narrative follows a girl nicknamed Agony who seeks popularity and must handle jealousy, admiration, and petty snubs, while other campers cluster around charismatic peers and vie for honors and social standing. Boarding scenes and camp rituals—songs, paddles, shared tents, and competitions—establish daily life at camp and set the stage for a season of camaraderie, testing, and personal growth.
