Great book for tweens!

Review by Ariel

This book is so good. I could really connect to it because I go to overnight camp. The characters are super relatable and have great personalities. If you like realistic fiction, you'll love this!

12 Before 13 Best Book EVER!

Review by Mimmy

12 Before 13 and literally all the friendship list series are literally the best books I've ever read. Gemma is probably my favourite character by the way. Lisa Greenwald=🔥 💖Mimmy

Review by SMiriam

Good book, but this is not the first book and every book in the series gets worse. This book and the first book are good and the third one is pretty good too.
