FRIENDSHIP TO THE MAX!
At Miss Qiunzilla Thiskwin Penniquiqul Thistle Crumpet's camp for hard-core lady-types, things are not what they seem. Three-eyed foxes. Secret caves. Anagrams. Luckily, Jo, April, Mal, Molly, and Ripley are five rad, butt-kicking best pals determined to have an awesome summer together... And they're not gonna let a magical quest or an array of supernatural critters get in their way! The mystery keeps getting bigger, and it all begins here.

This was so much fun. I love the dynamics and the friendship between those five.
Did not care for this. I don't think graphic novels are for me, and I found this one particularly confusing and disjointed. I had a hard time following the story for lack of internal narration. Even if I'm willing to give graphic novels another chance, I don't think it will be with this series.
3.5 Beautifully drawn and characterised, but too action-packed and fast-paced for my tastes, though probably I'm not the target audience. I like my comics way wordier.
Funnay!
