While the storyline of this book isn't particularly standout to me, what does stand out is the fact that it was co-written by two different authors.  I've never read a multi POV book where the characters voices felt so different.

The dual perspectives were perfect for this book. Both girls got to tell their story, share their prejudices, and learn from each other.
My biggest complaint from this book is that the map (B&N exclusive edition) ruined it for me. The girls could have avoided the entire ordeal by making better choices. I give them some credit, because they are teens. However, they walked waaaaayyyy further to get to their ride than they could have just walked home. I think, without the map for reference, I wouldn't have this frustration. 🤷‍♀️ 
In the end, great book for the times we are living in.
