Some quotes that really resonated with me that I feel like also help sum up the plot:
"Not being able to call the police when you need help really sucks, I'm learning." ~Theo
"Cycles," [Sydney] says quietly. "Break and build."
"They can break, but they can't erase," Gracie says. "They can build, but they can't bury us."
"What happens now?" [Sydney] asks.
"Now? We sit here and eat our food," Paulette says. "Always fighting to be done. Rushing won't help anything. Being strong will."

Minor: Drug abuse
