The third book in the middle-grade series that's part Scooby-Doo, part A Series of Unfortunate Events, and entirely genius! Follow the Sinister-Winterbottoms on their most outrageous adventure yet, when they find themselves at a normal summer camp!
After leaving the Sanguine Spa in pursuit of Edgaren't, the kids find themselves at a mysterious summer camp, Camp Creek. There are lake games and happy counselors, and there's even a tie-dye cabin. It's all very . . . normal.
But if Theo and Alexander know one thing, it's that normal doesn't always mean good. When everyone around her starts acting strange, Theo wonders if maybe the fumes from the tie-dye cabin are seeping into their brains, and she resolves to investigate what's really going on at Camp Creek.   
The third book in #1 New York Times bestselling author Kiersten White's Sinister Summer series continues the adventures of the Sinister-Winterbottoms and their aunt, who never saw a discount vacation destination she didn’t love.

      The third stop on the Sinister-Winterbottoms' summer tour of weird attractions is Camp Creepy--only it's masquerading as completely normal Camp Creek. Everyone is so happy at Camp Creek! Every counselor and camper is content to do every activity, never mind their personalities or preferences. Theo uncovers the reason why: The camp director is brainwashing everyone to be "normal." But why? Theo's chronically anxious twin, Alexander, has succumbed. He's stopped worrying about things such as waterborne bacteria and is jumping into the lake! Their older sister, Wil, has stopped hunching over her cellphone and is socializing and laughing! Once Theo undoes the process, the trio can once again work as a team to figure out why their parents have disappeared, leaving them with Aunt Saffronia, who keeps dropping them off at various destinations with vague instructions to find things. The scenarios are clever, and events are Scooby-Doo-level scary. The siblings' personalities crystallize in this volume alongside positive messages about acceptance. With the convergence at Camp Creek of characters from the previous two books plus the addition of new ones, a pattern emerges linking the young campers and their families through a common thread involving the villainous Edgaren't. Next stop: Stein Manor science camp. This slightly sinister--and very satisfying--interconnected series continues. (Mystery. 8-12)

      Gr 3-6-The "Sinister Summer" is back with its third installment. Wil, Theo, and Alexander have been dropped off by strange Aunt Saffronia in her curiously disappearing car at Camp Creek. Summer camp is supposed to be fun, and everyone appears to be having exactly that. So much fun is being had by everyone that it appears unnatural-everything at Camp Creek is perfect, perfectly joyful, perfectly timed, and perfectly smiley. That's too much perfect for Theo, who is the only one able to keep her wits about her and investigate the root cause of everyone's endless joy. And where are their parents? VERDICT A strong, swirling mystery filled with humor and wit. Recommended for all readers who enjoyed the first two entries.
