Kat and Stevie are seniors, theater nerds, & best friends who are complete opposites. They decide to sneak away to spend an awesome night in NYC. They will see a show, peek at some celebrities, eat a bougie dinner and return to the suburbs with their parents none the wiser. What could possibly go wrong? Turns out, nearly everything - they don’t have phones, they don’t have purses, and when they get separated, they don’t even have each other. Can Stevie and Kat get back together before their wild night out falls apart?
As someone who needs to have an itinerary, parking options, and driving directions before I go adventuring, this whole novel was anxiety-inducing. I can’t imagine being lost in a city and left to my own devices. However, it was fun and exciting (albeit totally implausible) to see what each girl got up to, and I was pleased to see their character growth as a result. It was a lot for one night, but I could see this book being appealing to teenage girls, especially those who are trying to decide future paths.
