I liked this YA novel.
I enjoyed reading about her average normal life and then BOOM! She's off to save Marai; by way of Paris, Dakar & Timbuktu. I loved how the adventure didn't just come easy to her. Between the frustration with her parents, anxiety about starting at a new high school without her friends, a crush & people trying to kill her, she did take time to reflect on what was truly important. Her adventures might entice you to travel.
