EVERYTHING BEAUTIFUL IS NOT RUINED
Seventeen-year-old Ingrid Lalonde must survive three weeks at wilderness camp to prove to her family- and herself- that she is capable of pursuing her dreams. Although Ingrid is the opposite of a nature girl, she decides that a few weeks of campfires and marshmallows and maybe meeting some new friends, can't be that bad. At least it will distract her from pining over Isaac, the boy she left with no explanation. But Ingrid's so-called "new friends" turn out to be a bunch of screw-ups, lunatics and delinquents, all recovering from a variety of traumas and disasters, most of them a lot tougher than Ingrid, and the program is run like a boot camp. There's no escape, and there aren't any marshmallows. Ingrid doesn't have anything in common with this group of misfits. Doesn't she? Still, she made a deal with her mother to survive this summer, and she intends to keep her end of it. Even if it means facing the irrefutable truth - that Ingrid is as messed up, if not more so - than her camp mates. Because if Ingrid can't even survive her summer in the wilderness, how will she have the strength to go after the future she wants?
