Thank you, thank you, thank you to Edelweiss+ for an ARC of this book.
Wow! My heart rate is still trying to come down after finishing this book. One of the best books I have read in a long time. Written mostly in verse, this did not take long to read. And, I could not put it down, too intense to take a break! The comparison of this book being a mix of Long Way Down with Hatchet is spot on. I can't imagine a student picking this up and NOT finishing. They will love this! Short chapters, absolutely fantastic plot, intense action-packed scenes... there are no lulls in this story. I will be purchasing multiple copies of this for my library. I will need it once students spread the word.

So, I wanted to add to my review. I just finished this for a THIRD time (all before the book was published). Such a quick (takes about 2 hrs), exciting, heart pounding, never-a-dull-moment read!! There is just something about this book. After I read this the first time, it immediately went on my favorites shelf (along with quite a few others). Now after reading this a third time... do I dare say it... this is my favorite book ever. Not tied with another book for favorites but all time fav. I am super excited to get the published copy into the hands of students. I cannot wait for them to read it and bring it back telling me how much they loved it. I loved Nora, loved her dad, loved her mom and really loved Danielle. Dusti Bowling, thank you, thank you, thank you. My heart will be forever grateful for this!
