Bummer Camp: A Novel by Ann Garvin

Cat McCarthy thought she had left her family’s theater camp behind, focusing on her dream cottage and upcoming baby. At 37, she’s worked hard to build a new life, distancing herself from the chaotic camp her irresponsible sister, Ginger, now runs. However, when Ginger hands control of the camp to Bob Durand, a dubious motivational speaker, and his scheming wife Elaine, disaster strikes. The Durands’ reckless plans to turn the camp into a "rehab" for anxious adults nearly bankrupt the McCarthy legacy, and to make matters worse, they disappear just days before a crucial fundraising gala.

With no choice, Cat rushes back to the camp to help Ginger clean up the mess. Together, they rally a quirky group of misfits in a desperate attempt to save the camp before investors arrive. As the sisters tackle one absurd challenge after another, they rediscover the bonds of family and the nostalgia of their childhood summers. Filled with heart, humor, and a love for tradition, this novel explores the importance of legacy, belonging, and holding on to treasured memories. ❤️📚❤️
