PositiveThe National Book ReviewFu's story is very much in this tradition, and the writing is rich, though somehow the bonds between the young women feel underdeveloped. Despite the mystery that moors Lost Girls of Camp Forevermore, which makes for an engrossing novel, Fu’s characters also seem somewhat remote. The strongest chapter in the book isn’t about any of the small cadre of five girls at all; it’s about Andee’s sister Kayla. Fu’s writing shines here -- it is where she explores the cross sections of religion, misogyny, family ties, and class.
