5.0

Told in alternating perspectives of Bo, who comes from a troubled family, and Agnes, who was born blind, this is a pageturner about friends and learning to find your voice and be who you are. Bo's chapters are told in present tense as things are happenings, and Agnes's chapters are told in past tense before they ran away from their problems. The story catches up to itself at the ending in a way that is reminiscent of The Outsiders by S E Hinton. Bo feels trapped in their small town by her troubled family, and Agnes feels trapped by her parents limiting her freedom due to her blindness. These caged feelings of not being in control of their own lives and futures result in the desperate desire to run away, but intense circumstances prove that no matter how far you run, your problems will always find you back home. I highly recommend this book and hardly put it down while reading. Short chapters with the constant need to know what happened next then and happens next now.
