Book Corner | Far From You by Tess Sharpe

Rating: 3/5
Pages: 343
Hey guys so today is another book review, this time on Far From You by Tess Sharpe. This was another book that I'd not heard mentioned in the book community and picked it up purely based on its intriguing blurb. This book follows a teenage girl called Sophie who is not only overcoming her drug abuse but coming to terms with the death of her best friend Mina.

I found the story line to this book really interesting as it unfolds like a murder mystery. Sophie has so much to deal with and prove not only to herself but her family.

One thing about this book is that it jumps back in forth between to time periods, so if this is something that you don't enjoy in a book or get confused by this is probably not the book for you. One set of chapters is set after Mina's death and follows Sophie through and getting out of rehab and trying to uncover Mina's murderer. The other half of the chapters are set before Mina's death and you really get to see what her and Sophie's relationship was like.

If you watch or have read Pretty Little Liars I feel you would enjoy this book however don't expect it to be anywhere near as good as PLL! Overall I did enjoy this book and gave it 3/5 stars however I probably wouldn't read it again.

Below is a more in depth review I filmed over on my YouTube Channel.

Untill next time, Sophie xx
