While this book deals with a heavy topic it is minimally broached and strictly in context with the story. There aren't any graphic scenes concerning the topic. The main characters are a fun group of caring adults who camp together. That is what I love best about this series. The friendship and love mixed in with camping. It's not their fault that bodies are found near them or, in this case, someone goes missing. There are several camping tips and recipes at the end of the book. Check those out especially if you want to try the food mentioned in the story.

Anne is still my favorite but I did enjoy the escape to a different time this book offered. When reading this, I think it helps to remember this was written at a time when everything did not revolve around political correction and cancelation. Yes it does call someone fat and religion was important in children's lives. Also Beverly was a name given to boys. Understand all that going in and you should enjoy the book a bit more. I loved the friendships in it and the feeling of being a part of it all (a feeling I often get with Ms. Montgomery's books). I love the character known as Story Girl. I wish I had her gift.
