Have you ever been on a epic trip with someone you didn’t know very well? Did you end up friends by the end?
Questions
1. This book depicts people from multiple cultures. Did you feel that they were explored in-depth enough?
2. Do you think Annamae and Samantha really fooled anyone by posing as boys?
3. Desperation drives a lot of Annamae and Samantha’s decisions. Were there any that you absolutely could not do, even if you were in their positions?
