The Distance Between Us Kasie West Books

After reading P.S. I Like You earlier this year, I knew I had to read some of Kasie West's other books. She has a great talent for writing romantic fluff. Yes, the book is cheesy. But sometimes, a girl needs a fluffy book she can blow through in a day or a weekend. The Distance Between Us delivered on that front.

Caymen and her mother barely skimp by, running a tourist shop in their town. Xander is a wealthy teen, new to the area, who is set to inherit the family business and is frequently on the front page of magazines. Due to past circumstances, Caymen and her mother are wary of getting involved with anyone with money, but that doesn't Caymen's feelings from doing what they will.

This book wasn't quite as cute and mushy as P.S. I Like You, but that didn't stop me from finishing the book in a day. It was a good fluff read, if predictable.

Rating

I would give this book a 3 out of 5. It was a good fluffy romance. There are better, but this one wasn't half bad.

The Distance Between Us Kasie West Books Reviews

he Distance Between Us was actually my first Kasie West novel. Naturally, I had pretty high expectations, not to mention I was still coming off the high that the beautiful The Summer of Chasing Mermaids gave me. I'm not really surprised that I was a bit disappointed in this one. I definitely enjoyed it, but it's not something I'll still be thinking about in a week. Or even tomorrow, probably. It was more of a mindless read for me than anything else.

Caymen is basically living my dream, besides being dirt poor (would you look at that, we have something in common!) and living in a house full of porcelain dolls. (They would infiltrate my nightmares.) She's got this rich guy interested in her with a private jet at his beck and call. And he takes her on it. She is, understandably, uncomfortable with it, which a lot of people are. But I'm ALL HERE FOR A GUY TO TAKE ME ON HIS JET FOR A DAY. I'm secretly always holding out hope to marry rich, which started out as a joke but has become reality as I watch my debt grow and think about ALL THE FUTURE DEBT. Plus, I want cats.

For the most part, I did like Caymen. I liked that she wasn't your typical MUST-GET-INTO-IVY-LEAGUE character that we see in a lot of YA contemps. I liked how lost she felt, how she struggled with wanting to know her absent father in the same way I struggle with my own feelings about my mother. But sometimes I was just...bored with her, I suppose. Or maybe that was the plot.

Overall, I found The Distance Between Us to be very light. It only really touched the surface on things that I think could have had much deeper meanings and messages from the book. I also feel like there's a few too many loose ends - what's going to happen with her grandparents now? And after all that talk about her father, you can't tell me Caymen's not going to try and contact him. 3 stars.
I finished this book the same night I started it. I tried to sleep but kept thinking about what was going to happen. I think that maybe I liked it to begin with because the names in the book already held a very special place in my heart so I already loved the characters.

I love the sarcasm and the witty comments that Kasie West writes with. It's authentic and natural. It makes me wonder if she is like that in real life and it makes me want to be her best friend.

I enjoyed this book so much I immediately bought The Fill-In Boyfriend and I don't think I'll be getting any kind of sleep tonight.

Anyways Xander and Caymen are more like a real couple then a fictional pairing. I appreciate that they feel so real. I mean yeah the book had its cheesy moments but what good book doesn't? I didn't call the last 100 pages of the book which is a nice change for me. I was actually surprised.

The one problem I had was the ending. I felt like I was left with more questions then necessary. It felt like I was being set up for a sequel that will probably never happen. Here's to wishing.
-*--Spoilers ahead*-*-*-I really liked this story.. and then it ended and I'm wondering where the rest of it is?? I feel like nothing in the story got resolved other than the main characters finally staying together after a back and forth. Who is the bill collector? Will Cayman visit her father?? Why is she really named Cayman?? Why did her mom leave her parents and hide the truth?? Will Susan be okay?? I'm trying to figure out if there is suppose to be a sequel to this book but I don't see anything as of yet (

I do like Cayman's humor and as previously reviewed by another person, she is for sure reminiscent of a Gilmore Girl. I do find it slightly ironic that although Cayman realized Susan is being unfair where she judges Mason differently than Xander, but she continues to judge Xander for the same reasons only proving that she too had a prejudice to his wealth. I wish we had gotten to know Xander better and why he was hanging out with 'friends' who obviously are not the nicest of people and how someone could not realize how nasty inside a person is.

But seriously, when my book ended with Xander going into the hospital room I seriously looked for the rest of the chapters. I liked this book but where is the rest??
