A review by acourtoffairytale
Camp Lanier by Sylvester Barzey
Did not finish book.
DNF at 83%
Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for an eARC in exchange for an honest review.
The blurb for this book intrigued me: a black teen gets sent to a summer camp as a worker instead of facing jail time, and in this camp, someone goes missing every year.
The reality is that the moment you bring ghosts into the equation, it feels really cheap. You could have done a cool slasher/the humans are the monsters and brought the background from the town/camp in any other way. I can see the ending coming from a mile away, since we met the family owning the camp.
I lost interest in this book around the 60% mark, so I will not be continuing and am DNFing this.
