A review by zelma
Very Far Away from Anywhere Else by Ursula K. Le Guin

4.0

Excellent and honest portrayal of being a teenager. This rang very true to me and my memories of that time in my life. I remember feeling so serious about everything, yet able to be completely goofy; worried about the future but so excited and ready for it I couldn't contain myself; in love with the idea of being in love but not ready for it yet; feeling so close to people yet so alone. it wasn't a prefect book (the end felt slightly off for me, just with how distant the narrator becomes) but it was so honest and realistic that I could overlook that.
