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.

This was an overall great book - but not a book that changed my life. Not a book that I'll read again. It was simply good- something I enjoyed but wasn't salivating to read. I enjoyed the track element of the story and I liked how this duel-perspective was written.
