About Far From Here:
How long do you hold on to hope?
Danica Greene has always hated flying, so it was almost laughable that the boy of her dreams was a pilot. She married him anyway and together, she and Etsell settled into a life where love really did seem to conquer all. Danica is firmly rooted on the ground in Blackhawk, the small town in northern Iowa where they grew up, and the wide slashes of sky that stretch endlessly across the prairie seem more than enough for Etsell. But when the opportunity to spend three weeks in Alaska helping a pilot friend presents itself, Etsell accepts and their idyllic world is turned upside down. It’s his dream, he reveals, and Danica knows that she can’t stand in the way. Ell is on his last flight before heading home when his plane mysteriously vanishes shortly after takeoff, leaving Danica in a free fall. Etsell is gone, but what exactly does gone mean? Is she a widow? An abandoned wife? Or will Etsell find his way home to her? Danica is forced to search for the truth in her marriage and treks to Alaska to grapple with the unanswerable questions about her husband’s mysterious disappearance. But when she learns that Ell wasn’t flying alone and that a woman is missing, too, the bits and pieces of the careful life that she had constructed for them in Iowa take to the wind. A story of love and loss, and ultimately starting over, Far From Here explores the dynamics of intimacy and the potentially devastating consequences of the little white lies we tell the ones we love.

Q: What is the best book you've read in the last month? What is the worst book you've read in the last month?
I'm taking this to mean the best and worst books I've read (so far) in March.
The best was Bourne by Lisa T. Bergren...
The worst - that is really hard to choose because I really enjoyed ALL five of the books I read, but I guess I'd choose Song of My Heart by Kim Vogel Sawyer.
Hopping through. I have to get to Lisa Bergren's book. I love the series.

If you really enjoyed all five books you read this week, why designate any of them as the "worst?" That doesn't seem fair to "Song of My Heart" to receive a "worst" rating when you said you did enjoy it.
ReplyDeleteI guess I could have done that, but out of the five books I've read this month, that was the one I enjoyed the least... I probably shouldn't have labeled it the "worst", though, because it was really good! :D
