really don‘t like you right now;
I‘ll keep my distance.

I really enjoyed this simple yet cute contemporary romance. It was predictable and cliche but in a good way. I liked the MC Caymen and her sarcasm and humour, I also liked the contrasting love interest, Xander. The pacing was fast and overall easy to read.

Someone suggested I try Audible escapes for a free month. Super steamy romance isn‘t my thing, but there are some good classics included. This one is a light teen romance, more of a sweet 1st boyfriend plot. I like the main character‘s sarcasm, the side plot with her mom, and the doll shop setting. The perfect rich boyfriend feels a bit fake. Light, but forgettable bc I‘m listening to as many as I can while it‘s free, so they blend together a bit.

Y'all, I have really been sleeping on Kasie West. After getting the free trial of #AudibleEscape , I listened to this book and LOVED it. The main character works at a doll store her mom owns and the guy she meets is next in line to take over his family business as well (hotels). They do set up career days for each other to discover what they really want to do in life. ❤

I've already read two more of her books. ✌ #livingmybestbooklife

This was a cute bit of fluffy YA romance. Short and sweet and not a lot to it. I liked the story and the characters. The ending felt a bit rushed, but overall it was cute.

5/5 stars. Kasie West writes another home run for me. Loved this book. I definitely wish there was a more of a wrap up between some of the characters, but overall i really enjoyed the book.

And that wraps up my reading for 2018 !

I'm an absolute sucker for West's YA contemporary stories. They're just so cute and make you feel all lovey dovey ! ❤️

5 🌟 #YA

Tl/dr: Poor girl and rich boy fall in love.

Good: terribly well-described characters, thoughtful situations, well-written, good dialogue

Bad: somewhat derivative and cliched, but honestly not detrimental to the tale

Terribly enjoyable love story with vague elements of Gilmore Girls and Where‘d You Go Bernadette #ya #yalit #humor #yahumor #romance #romancenovel

#kasiewest is one of my favorite authors!! I've read #psilikeyou #onthefence #byyourside and #thefillinboyfriend I recently was gifted #thedistancebetweenus from a #bookstafriend and I can't wait to read it!! Do y'all like Kasie West? Which book is your favorite?

"Feelings can be the most costly thing in the universe."

I didn‘t want to put this down, even though it was predictable.

Meh. This book was really meh. Poor girl meets rich boy and they fall in love. It's all very predictable. The audio book was performed well, but I couldn't get invested in any of the drama. If you like your contemporary YA cute, but predictable- this one might be for you. Otherwise... well, meh.

Just finished my second Kasie West book. Easy & predictable YA- just the way I like them. The story line was a bit far fetched but I did enjoy some cutesy parts like Caymen refusing to drink from anything unless Xander drank from it first. Adorable & enjoyable addition to my #Ireadya week!

Some of our favorite summer reads! 😍📚🌻🌞
#TheDistanceBetweenUs is SO GOOD. Highly recommend it!

The character Caymen in the story is so well rounded. You can really connect with the character and for me, I connected with her wit! This book got me so wrapped up that the initial task of searching for food could not be completed at all. I ended up in the kitchen in front of the fridge without realizing it. I was broken out of my trance when my dad entered the kitchen laughing at how wrapped up I was in the story.

Great

Just picked this up on audio for the weekend 🎧📚❤

This YA book had a good storyline but I felt it could've gone deeper. It wasn't a bad story tho and held my interest

8/100 The Distance Between Us by Kasie West

Once again, West didn't disappoint with her writing.

Another super cute read, if not a little bit predictable in places, but definitely re-readable if you need a pick-me-up

This book isn't perfect, but it was exactly what I wanted at the moment: a sweet romcom! I loved Cayman's humor and her back-and-forth with Xander. I wish some loose ends had been tied up, but I enjoyed it and would definitely read another Kasie West book!

This book just helps prove why Kasie West is my fave Author.Her writing is stellar and her characters are so genuine and real. This book was great and I think everyone should read it #lovelovelove #🤓📚

Glad I am participating in Booktubeathon or I wouldn't have picked this up as soon as I did. I must say tho that Claymen is quite complex.

A quick easy read. I thought the main character was whiny in parts and some plot points were predictable.

Cute and charming, but there were some plot inconsistencies and too-convenient resolutions at the end. A much improved read over The Fill In Boyfriend.

Excited to try another Kasie West book! While the Fill In Boyfriend wasn't my favorite, I've heard nothing but good things about The Distance Between Us! Here's hoping that it lives up to the hype!

It didn't work out for me. Maybe if I've read this book when I was still in my teenage years I would've loved it, but stories like this rarely amaze me these days. Full review: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/1544483403?book_show_action=false
