Which novel contains the line Looks like we are both trying to make a run for it?

• A. Clean Getaway
• B. The Crossover
• C. The Outsiders
• D. The Lightning Thief

Answer: (A)

That line signals a moment of shared urgency and quick planning between characters, showing how they decide to act together in the face of danger. In Clean Getaway, a young boy and his grandmother are on a tense cross-country road trip, trying to stay ahead of trouble while uncovering family secrets. The line captures that instant when they both commit to a risky escape, highlighting their trust, resourcefulness, and the suspense driving the story. The other novels revolve around different premises: The Crossover focuses on basketball and family in verse; The Outsiders centers on teen identity and class conflict; The Lightning Thief follows a mythological quest. None hinge on a joint, running-for-it moment in the same way, so this line fits Clean Getaway best.
