I adore stories about strangers meeting and and a story based around that. I thought this book not only had a cool concept but also such a cool narrative and way of telling the story. I loved how past and present was used to to tell these five characters stories. I was equally invested in all the various POV and raced through it. It was a more emotional read and def tugged on my heart strings. I really enjoyed it and would rec. you get this book when it comes out in Feb. It was the prefect book to end 2017 with.

Skyler was my favorite, and in some way, I wished the novel had focused on her. Jason's was also a compelling story for different reasons. The framing of the novel didn't really work for me, and I didn't buy how the characters interacted with each other. This is very much worth reading as a study in teens dealing with major crisis. 3.5 stars. no reviews | add a review
