review 1: Didn't like this book - - please don't read any further if you don't want the plot spoiled. Basically, I thought the main character was really shallow. The author gave so many details of things she didn't need to and didn't give the relationships enough description. The lurking pastor who dropped in occasionally then they were suddenly in love? Didn't really get who the kid belonged to in the end. Found myself skipping some of her writing because it was just plain out unnecessary. I'm not saying that I wouldn't be depressed beyond belief if I lost someone - but it never showed any real 'light' or resolution. Oh well, just not my kind of book. Sorry for those of you who liked it.
review 2: Nicole Baart is consistently one of my favorite authors. Why? She capture... mores the hearts of strugglers so well. She mines their inner landscape. And she pulls off surprising, twisty stories that keep me turning pages. Far From Here kept me turning the page. She accurately portrayed the complexity of grief, particularly over losing someone who didn't always do things right. Baart's words represent reality, truth, and the beauty of human relationships. less
