Switchback by Danika Stone 
Published by: Swoon Reads | Publication date: May 28th 2019
Genres: Contemporary, Young Adult

Synopsis:​
     Vale loves to hike, but kind of hates her classmates. Ash is okay with his classmates, but kind of hates the outdoors. So, needless to say they are both fairly certain that the overnight nature hike with their PE class is going to be a hellish experience. But when they get separated from the group during a storm, they have worse things to worry about than bullies and blisters.
        Lost in the Canadian wilderness with limited supplies, caught in dangerous weather conditions, and surrounded by deadly wildlife, it’s going to take every bit of strength, skill, and luck they can muster to survive.

Switch Back      -       Danika Stone         
    Being a person who loves the Rocky Mountains, I really like this story.  It is very well-written.  I could see myself there hiking with the characters.  There is so much adventure and suspense in this story.  I love the wildlife included. 
    The characters are well-developed.  Ash and Vale are true best friends.  It's great the way they always think of the other one in every situation.  It's easy to feel their emotions on every level.
 
  I recommend this book to those who love a good adventure.
 
I give this book a literary rating of  5/5

        Ms. Stone’s work has received both recognition and literary praise. In 2017, Chapters included EDGE OF WILD in “Our Favourite Canadian Fiction”, and INTERNET FAMOUS was nominated for the R. Ross Annett Award for Children’s Literature (2018) as well as selected as one of Fierce Reads’ “9 Perfect Summertime Reads” (2017).
