Helpful Score: 3

i was a 14 year old camper in the adirondack mountains the summer of 1969. so not far off from barbara in 1975. i loved this book. read it every chance i got, which tells me it's 5 stars right off the bat. the setting is magnificent. classic mountain vibes. and a really dark dysfunctional family. an amazing array of strong women, from all walks of life. and a thread running through the entire book of the love and respect for the land and the woods that filters from eldest to youngest, from rich to poor. creepy but not scary. gripping but not grisly. a great read.
