Hello. Today, I am going to review Blink & Caution by Tim Wynne-Jones. Here's the synopsis:
Two street kids get
tangled in a plot over their heads - and risk an unexpected connection -
in this heart-pounding thriller by Tim Wynne-Jones.
Boy, did Blink get off on the
wrong floor. All he wanted was to steal some breakfast for his empty
belly, but instead he stumbled upon a fake kidnapping and a cell phone
dropped by an "abducted" CEO, giving Blink a link to his perfect blonde
daughter. Now Blink is on the run, but it’s OK as long as he’s smart
enough to stay in the game and keep Captain Panic locked in his hold.
Enter a girl named Caution. As in "Caution: Toxic." As in "Caution:
Watch Your Step." She’s also on the run, from a skeezy drug-dealer
boyfriend and from a nightmare in her past that won’t let her go. When
she spies Blink at the train station, Caution can see he’s an easy mark.
But there’s something about this naïve, skinny street punk, whom she
only wanted to rob, that tugs at her heart, a heart she thought deserved
not to feel. Charged with suspense and intrigue, this taut novel trails
two deeply compelling characters as they forge a blackmail scheme that
is foolhardy at best, disastrous at worst - along with a fated, tender
partnership that will offer them each a rare chance for redemption.
This book was amazing in my eyes. The dialogue was amazing between the characters. It was a little hard at first because some parts of the story were in a second person perspective. I love the way that the author intertwined the Blink and Caution's destinies together. Simply amazing!
