SUMMARY: Jenny goes to girl scout camp with her friends. The main attraction is the boy scout camp just across the river. Jenny and her friends manage to do more than just think about the other camp.

COMMENTARY: I enjoyed the author's style. She has a nice light touch and doesn't treat her characters or the situations that they get themselves into too seriously. The humorous asides and detours from her narrative made the story much more enjoyable for me.

One thing about the story: it is a bit episodic. It is all about the time they spend getting to and at scout camp, but it seems to lack a focal point. The story as a whole does not build up to one climactic moment, although it does have such a moment. This is just an observation, not a criticism; something to keep in mind when you are reading it.

I get the impression that this story will appeal more to women than to men. I could be wrong, but that is how it -- er -- rubs me.
