It didn’t take long to get into the swing of things though. My only real concern was that chapters alternate from the past to the present, which normally wouldn’t bother me, but in Far From You the past-chapters aren’t told in past-chronological order, so I kind of felt a little muddled at the start (that could also be because I didn’t have the chance to get into the book in the first sitting, so I was a little distracted too). This novel made me have all the feels – the characters, the storyline, the mystery, the unfairness, the heartbreak. This is a debut novel and it is fab-u-lous.

I was super surprised by just how much I loved this book. Mina was deliberately murdered.įorced into rehab for an addiction she’d already beaten, Sophie’s finally out and on the trail of the killer – but can she track them down before they come for her? She and Mina shared a secret, but there was no drug deal. Four months ago her best friend, Mina, died in what everyone believes was a drug deal gone wrong – a deal they think Sophie set up. That’s how long recovering addict Sophie’s been drug-free.
