Closer to Nowhere by Ellen Hopkins
5.0
Thank you to the publisher and Net Galley for giving me the opportunity to read Closer to Nowhere.
Hannah and Cal are cousins that have been living together since Cal's mother died. It explores the family relationships that exist. It is told in verse.
I haven't read Ellen Hopkins and I'm not a big reader of middle grade. I typically enjoy books in verse only audibly. This book is fantastic. I have have several family members who are at this age and they are all getting a copy once it is released. I am pressing it into the hands of every person who can appreciate middle grade.
I was shocked at how well I know the characters since it is written in verse. I was really drawn in to their story and having it in verse did not detract from it at all.
Please pick up this book for anyone who loves a great middle great story.
