Blink and Caution by Tim Wynne-Jones
Blink hoping to steal some breakfast, is forced to go on the run after stumbling upon the fake kidnapping of a CEO and recovering the man's cellphone. While in his travels to find out more about what he witnessed, he meets up with Caution, a girl trying to ditch her drug-dealing boyfriend, who identifies Blink as a mark until he tugs at her heart strings. This is a great read about two teens who are on the run, trying to survive and find their place in the world. Emotional and intense.
Blink and Caution is on the 2012 Tayshas High School Reading List.
