Content Warning: Sexual assault, violence
I understand and appreciate what this book was trying to do. And there were some parts that I really liked. But overall, I just wasn't into it.

Trigger warning for rape culture and victim blaming. I think the writing was beautiful. Overall the intention of the book was good however it didn’t really fully capture my attention. 2.5 star rating.

Ahh this book was so fun! It certainly met my expectations as far as having been blurbed a "YA Thelma & Louise" because it had all those chilling, crazy road trip vibes that I wanted!
Trixie and Lux get stuck in bad situation and make some pretty terrible decisions throughout this story, but you can't help but root for them throughout everything they endure. They are troubled, scared kids, the messiest of flawed characters, and I feel like that only made them all the more endearing. I just wish we had some more of them! It also would have been fun to get inside Lux's head as well, and feel what she was feeling throughout this gritty story of friendship on the run.
There's suspense, and love, and so much bad-assery, and a timely #metoo storyline that is refreshing but also heartbreaking. The writing is beautiful, and while ending may not be for every reader, I absolutely loved it.

I loved the queer thriller but the storyline was flat. And the ending was not what I hoped for :( such a bummer because I think it could have been 4-5 stars if the plot had more twists and turns.
