Stranded by Melinda Braun is about a group of seven backpacking in the mountains with a guide for a week. However, when a big storm comes up unexpectedly, three die and the four remaining have to work together to survive. None of them knew each other before the trip. Emma, age 17, is still feeling guilty about not being able to save her younger sister from a car wreck a year ago and still gets nightmares.
This book jumps into the backpacking trip practically right from the start and takes the reader through each morning, day and night of the adventure. The interaction between the teens is interesting as they begin to trust each other and work together. I liked it okay, but isn’t as good as other wilderness books I’ve read.
