Seems like everyone's on vacation this week but me. :0( But I'm not gonna let it get me down. Instead, I'm going to give another book away. Sharing books makes my heart happy. :D The Vacation Reads Giveaway Hop is hosted by I am a Reader, Not a Writer and The Bookish Mama, and for my stop, I'm not giving away your typical vacation read. No, I'm giving away a book that more likely resembles a vacation-from-hell:

No parents. No rules. No way home.
Fourteen-year-old Bonnie MacDonald couldn't be more excited for a camping trip on an island off the coast of Thailand with her fellow Amelia Earhart Cadets-the daughters of the men and women stationed there during the Vietnam War. But when a strong current deposits the girls on what their boatman calls the "forbidden island," things take a turn for the worse: A powerful storm comes to destroy their campsite, the smallest of the junior cadets is found dead, and their boatman never returns. What once seemed like a vacation in paradise has become a battle against the elements.
Peppered with short, frantic entries from Bonnie's journal, Lost Girls is a page-turning, heart-pounding adventure story about a group of teen girls fighting for their lives.
