"Far From You" by Tess Sharpe
“I'll choose you. No matter how hard it is. No matter what people say. Every time, I'll choose you. It's up to you to choose me back.”
A gripping and emotional young adult book that deals with love, loss, addiction, and murder. The story follows the life of Sophie, a teenage girl who is struggling with addiction and is haunted by the death of her best friend, Mina. Sophie is determined to find out the truth about Mina's death, which leads her on a dangerous path that puts her own life at risk.
Sharpe's writing captures the complexity of Sophie's emotions and the intense relationships she forms throughout the story. The book deals with sensitive topics such as drug abuse, mental illness, and homophobia, but handles them with care and compassion.
This was my March read for @mrd_reads #MrDReads2023 reading challenge.
