review 1: Michaela Carter’s first novel is like eating a bar of dark chocolate with Mexican chilies and raspberries within - you never know if you're going to get the seductive sweet erotica on your tongue or the painful hot burn to scorch your senses. It’s languid poetry in motion. The story of main character Gwen/Stevie is about feeling the cold ocean mist, the mesmerizing death grip of rip tides, and the steady pace of the rhythmic waves licking your senses alive. Readers will come to understand the provocative dilemmas women face for love −then and now.
review 2: I couldn't wait to receive my copy of Michaela Carter's - Further Out Than You Thought and was not disappointed. Her first novel was such a vivid journey of three people during such a tumultuous time.
... moreI often felt i was apart of the novel feeling the crisp descriptions given it was easy to fall into anyone of the characters in the creative flow of this book. A pleasant and good read! Highly recommend and can't wait for her next one! less

Very good. But the ending sort of dragged.
