"Beautifully drawn, brutally funny, brilliantly honest. Vera is such a good cartoonist I almost can’t stand it.” ―Raina Telgemeier, author of Smile

All Vera wants to do is fit in―but that’s not easy for a Russian girl in the suburbs. Her friends live in fancy houses and their parents can afford to send them to the best summer camps. Vera’s single mother can’t afford that sort of luxury, but there's one summer camp in her price range―Russian summer camp.

Vera is sure she's found the one place she can fit in, but camp is far from what she imagined. And nothing could prepare her for all the "cool girl" drama, endless Russian history lessons, and outhouses straight out of nightmares!

August 27th 2018, anyone? Either way, this book was ok. :)

I agree with you bookwormilg it's a good, funny book I really like! I'm getting it as one of my prizes!

I used to not like graphic novels! I thought were useless!!! Vera Brosgol and Raina Telgemeier have changed that for me! This book was really interesting! At first, I wasn't sure I wanted to read it, but I thought "It'll take me less than a day, so why don't I just read it! It can't be too bad," And it was actually pretty good. I might check out a few of the author's other books!!
