A review by kole
The Distance Between Us by Kasie West

2.0

I am DETERMINED to find a romance that gets 4+ stars. But mmm...this was ok.
While I enjoyed Cayman’s wit(we share the same brand of dry humor) she didn’t seem to be someone who was analytical or good at making informed decisions. Which would be a trait of someone who loves science, right?
Xander was kind of bland. The only traits I can remember about him are physical.
The plot was not the best. There were a lot of elements and it felt pretty messy. The emphasis on the doll store and Cayman’s internal dialogue took up a lot of the story when it could have been used elsewhere. The romantic relationship took a back burner which would be fine if the mother/daughter relationship was at the forefront but really this was a poorly executed story about the disparity of social classes.

This is my second experience with a Kasie West book and while they’ve both been easy to get through and relatively entertaining, I find myself forgetting them almost immediately.
