This third novel based on the popular Lumberjanes comics finds the girls preparing for a theatrical festival at their summer camp for "Hardcore Lady-Types." But song-loving Ripley is distracted by a rescue mission related to a mysterious egg she found. Monochromatic red illustrations, snappy feminist-focused dialogue, fantasy elements, and colorful characters keep the plot rocketing forward. As usual, friendship and individuality are important overarching themes.
