Marva is a serious voting enthusiast, and at 18 is getting to pull the lever for the first time. She's pissed at her boyfriend, Alec, who for reasons that never become clear, isn't voting. Enter Luke, a disenfranchised voter, who obviously Marva has to help vote. I forget which state they're in, California, I think, but it's a state that has same-day registration, not to mention school is held on Election Day. Is that really a thing? It's the November election, not a primary, and Marva is so committed that she misses a calculus test to help get Luke to the polling place for his former residence. Luke teases Marva for going to a fancy school and driving a Volvo, which annoys her, but she still thinks he's cute.

As the day progresses, they talk about race (they're both Black), class, and other topics, they get to know each other better. Luke even meets Marva's parents, who immediate like him better than ignorant white Alec.

It's a readable, but not the most satisfying. Also the Eartha Kitty (Instagram cat celeb) plot line was totally wack. If one of my cats was ever missing, I would freak the hell out and wouldn't worry about one dumbass kid with other resources getting his vote on.

Thanks, NetGalley and Disney for the DRC.
