“How do we love and what are the consequences? Kristin Halbrook paints an edgy and vivid portrait of two troubled teens on the run. This is a gracefully written, thought-provoking and absorbing debut. . . . I haven’t read a love story quite like it before, honestly.” - Courtney Summers, author of Cracked Up to Be, Some Girls Are, and Fall for Anything
“Beautiful, heartbreaking, and exhilarating—NOBODY BUT US will have you holding your breath until the very last page.” - Kody Keplinger, author of The DUFF and A Midsummer’s Nightmare
“An achingly believable love story about two teens outrunning a society that has failed them, hoping the lights at the end of the highway aren’t just a mirage. Tense, lyrical and heartbreaking; the kind of book that lingers a long time.” - Kirsten Hubbard, author of Wanderlove and Like Mandarin
“Raw, immediate, and utterly unflinching. Halbrook’s debut features complex characters, and attempting to puzzle them out makes for a thought-provoking read.” - ALA Booklist
“A dark, romantic wild ride reminiscent of Thelma and Louise.” - Publishers Weekly
“What is special about this book is the way that these two young people defy expectations. The novel cranks up to a heart-pounding finale, perfect for readers who like to be on the edge of their seats, perhaps with a box of Kleenex at hand. Recommended for readers of Lisa McMann’s and Patricia McCormick’s books.” - School Library Journal
