I would have loved to have been friends with these girls when I was their age! The novel is set in the Bay Area in early 70s and it was interesting to read about what has changed (and what hasn’t.) They bond over defending their fort and writing stories where they save themselves without any princes needing to intervene. Anyone with a lot of imagination or an interest in writing will enjoy this book.
