Couldn't connect with let alone support the main protagonist - could be an age issue, because she just sounds so immature and as an adult, it's hard to condone whatever is happening in her mind and doings. But just found the heroine very unsympathetic so didn't feel the desire to figure out what happened to her and her issues, sadly

I appreciate the publisher allowing me to read this book. I found it enjoyable to read though I found the plot a little slow at times, i really enjoyed the characters.

Sunny and her brother Gil are guilted into helping their aged uncle with home repairs. Sunny convinces her best friend to tag along, and Gil brings his judgmental poet girlfriend. The four arrive at their uncle's house and are shocked at the sight of the amount of work that needs to be done and the lack of supplies or resources to get the work done. After an accident that puts their uncle in the hospital, Gil takes over the repairs and Sunny is left to deal with unexpected campers. It turns out, her uncle was advertising his field as a campground complete with daily camp activities. Eventually, a mob of campers turn up when they hear Gil is staying on the property because they believe Gil had an encounter with an extraterrestrial.

Very hokey and a lot funny, this book has a ton of word play that made me giggle out loud, and the events in the story should be completely bizarre to the edge of unbelievable, but they actually came off as too crazy to not be believable. (It is fiction book, but you could definitely imagine someone like Sunny getting herself into the situations in which she found herself!) Good choice if you are looking for something light and humorous.

Fun. Exciting. Funny. A joy! If you want to laugh read this book. A cozy romance with fast-paced action and strong characters. A delight. The best summer read!

i am so glad i got to read this book early, thanks so much to netgalley and their amazing website!!!! this was such a fun and pure book. it was awesome and i suggest you grab it today!!

I was in a reading slump for the past few weeks, and this lovely story of Sunny McIntosh is what took me out of it. Camp Crackers is a simple, humerous novel which narrates the funny adventures of Sunny and her team including Gil, Berta and Romily in the Cracker's Cottage which include renovating the old country house and setting up a camp out of nothing.

I can't think of a book which made me laugh so much like Camp Crackers did in the last few months. The pleasant narrative style, the lovely characters and the funny incidents in the book makes it a perfect feel- good novel. The things I loved the most about this novel are the characters and the writing style which is exceptionally humerous. If light-hearted, funny stories is your niche, Camp Crackers is a perfect book for you!

**** spoilers ahead****

I was given the opportunity to read this book and I am so thankful for that.
This book was absolutely perfect for me. The storyline, the characters and the way it flowed was just perfect.
The story begins with the characters sunny and gil who are brother and sister. Gil had a experience which now people beileve he was obducted by aliens and has the cult following and sunny keeps him in line to not lose site of things. One day sunny gets a call from her mom to go help her uncle clyde out at the old cottage that they used to go to when they were kids. She says it is falling apart and it is in need of some repair and work. So sunny has to convince her brother to come. Sunny brings her friend berta and to their surprise gil has a girlfriend named romil who also comes with them. Gils girlfriend comes off a bit snobish and that she is a bit above eveyone else. This gets on sunnys and bertas nerves. Berta is not ine to keept quite so she makes snide comments from time to time.

So they head up to the broken down cottage and it is in bad shape and they are unaware that clyde mother is there as well till the next day. Clyde had her hide in her room locked up until the next morning. So they see what needs to be done and talk about payment which turns out to be a classic jaguar. Since their uncle neever seems to pay them they needed to make sure he was actually going to follow through. See their uncle is a bit of drunk and comes of as a selfish man. So as things get on a accident happens and sunny knocks cldye over and he break some bones.he goes to the hospital and is there for awhile.

People start showing up claiming to have paid for camoing plots there. Sunny had found a dude camping prior in the grounds and confronted but her uncle said he let him stay a few days in return for setting up this website for people to camp on his land. Well the guy name ambrose went over board on the site and set up things they couldn't fully deliver or did they?
So whild their ubcle in in the hospital they now have theor hands full with campers, ufos fanatics, a house thats falling apart and much more.
I wont give anymore because you really just need to read the book. I wanted to finish faster then I did but I have a two year old and college classes im finishing up plus wife life. So i would have read this faster if i had a few days to myself. It is a quick read if you got the time. I did not want to put it down. I really really would love a hard copy of the book because i really enjoyed it that much and I collect books but sadly it is archived so that part is a bummer. But if you get the chance to read this book definitely do it was such a fun story and I loved how everything turned out. I do wish the ending didnt rush up so fast but it dod tie everything up nicely. So again thank you so much for the opportunity to be able to read this book. I reall really enjoyed it alot and I think anyone else reading this review would to. So buy it, download, whatever you can its so much fun and just a nice soild story.

It's been a long time since I laughed this much. Lisa Stewart really has a talent for discribing hilarious situations and making them believable.

In Camp Crackers siblings Sunny and Gil are persuaded to spend their summer holiday renovating their uncle’s shabby country cottage only to discover an invasion of mad campers in his back field. This book contains everything from alien sightings and pet goats named Larry to loud Texans.

The fact that Sunny always was recognised as "Gil's sister" reminded me of all the times I've been identified as "only" my brothers sister. The book manages to capture the mix of exasperation and love this invokes in us younger sisters.

I enjoyed this book and the smile it put on my face, but I wish the ending wouldn't have felt so rushed. So many threads in the story felt unfinished when I had to leave it.

Short synopsis:
Sunny McIntosh is a redheaded, offbeat 23-year-old who dabbles in laziness. She has spent her life overshadowed by Gil – her perfect nerd of a brother. But this is her story – how she is thrown into hosting “the worst campsite in Scotland”, battles to restrain a fanatical sci-fi brigade and is desperate to finish the DIY so she can return home to Edinburgh and her precious Mathew.

I received this book as an ARC from NetGalley.

Sunny and Gil McIntosh are coerced by their mom to spend some of their summer break at their Uncle's house to assist with sprucing it up in exchange for payment.

Their stay becomes a comedy of errors/issues when Sunny accidently knocks her uncle off a ladder sending him to the hospital. Then, all of the uncles secrets start pouring out. The book winds through their time there along with a list people who weave in and out of the story.

This is a new author to me, and I throughly enjoyed it. Set in Scotland, the characters were great, a real mix - Larry was one of my favourites!! A really funny story, following a brother and sister while doing up their uncle's house. We'll written, great story, and very funny. I will be looking out for more books by this author.

What a fabulous read this was. Admittedly I am from the area where it is set so possibly slightly biased. Having been emotionally blackmailed to help out their uncle, the siblings with a friend and partner head off the Scottish Borders where they discover the house a complete wreck, their uncle ends up in hospital and they discover he has set up a website advertising the land as a camp site. Madness then ensues whilst they try to run said site and do up the house, add a UFO enthusiasts convention into the mix and you end up with really funny read. The characters are well written and likeable or unlikeable depending on their role in the proceedings, the ending was not what I expected which was a nice surprise

Such a great book! You will laugh out loud at some of the situations in this story. Great characters written with skill. I finished the whole book in one sitting.

Not what I expected but very funny and I loved it when Sunny realised they were running a campsite. The American family were great fun. The book is full of great characters. A well worth read. The book is a bit slow to start with then zoom
