Be Not Far from Me by Mindy McGinnis
5.0
❖ [blog] ❖ [twitter] ❖ [booktube] ❖
Mindy McGinnis is officially one of my favorite authors after this, my fourth read from her. This story was like if Wild was young adult fiction with a character getting lost rather than planning a hike. We spend most of the novel alone with the protagonist as she tries to survive in the wilderness and processes some stuff that's gone on in her life. This was like a combination of elements from her three other works, as opiate use was described well again, intersectional feminism is at the forefront with great female relationships, and it's another survival story. I tried to give it only 4 stars, but by the end I was too in love with it.
