Soon this newfound family realizes that, in a world in which the adults in power have betrayed them, running is not enough and they must wage a resistance, using their collective power to take back control of their future.

COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Read the book submitted by steveiew on June 14, 2019, 10:02am If I didn't have the greater context I gained from reading the book I would have been pretty confused. The book was really well done while the movie fell flat. The romance seemed silly at best.
