Alone in the Woods
By Rebecca Behrens
(Maine Student Book Award Book)
Do not take this book on your camping trip. It will creep you out. Read it in a warm comfy place.
Former best friends are lost in the woods and face all kinds of challenges, the largest one being their friendship.
It is told in two voices so you get both sides. I was pulling for one character more than the other.
I found the chapters giving back round information a relief after all the physical suffering they were going through.
It will leave you with questions, like, how secure are your friendships? Can you adapt? Could you survive, alone in the woods?
