pickPoppy and her family have been on the run for all of her 17 years. But she has no idea why. Her parents are loving but they insist on living by a very strict set of rules. Feeling constrained and longing for more, Poppy bends the rules and sees a world of opportunity. But can she risk her family‘s safety for her own freedom? This was excellent. Really enjoyed it.
pickI have no idea how this ended up on my book club's radar, but I randomly picked it and assigned it to May. It absolutely sucks you in. And the entire book club is going nutty about how much they love it. A teen girl and her fam are constantly on the run but she actually has no idea why. Highly recommend.

pickI just chose this book at random from the recently uploaded audiobooks at my library. I'm so glad I did. It was an excellent story about a fugitive family told from the eldest daughter's perspective. Highly recommend!
pickPoppy is nearing 18 and uncertain about her future because, for her entire life, her family has moved often and suddenly to avoid the law. But she doesn‘t know why. As they come to their next new place, she starts to learn some things and make new connections, shaking everything up. A bit of a melodramatic premise, but it was a fun read.

Poppy is on the cusp of her eighteenth birthday, and she's spent her entire childhood on the run with her family. She doesn't know her parents' real names, what they are running from, and who provides them with safe houses, new ids, and money every time they have to abandon another city.
pickThis was a great thriller! Seventeen-year-old Poppy and younger sister Emma are on the run with their parents and move every few months (although the girls don‘t know why). But when they settle in California things get dicey as Poppy falls in love and finally discovers the big secret behind their parents‘ “don‘t get involved” credo. Can be read in 1 sitting as you won‘t want to put it down!
Thanks to #NetGalley for this ARC. Out now.
pickOverall I enjoyed this multi genre YA story. It‘s a mystery/thriller with some romance thrown in. Eighteen-year-old Poppy has never had a stable life. She, along with her parents and 8-year-old sister, have been on the run/under the radar/off the grid her whole life. Why? She has no idea. This is a story about growing up, finding yourself (literally) and coming to terms with your future, which may or may not match other‘s expectations. While 🔻
