Reviews for The Distance Between Us
Getting Closer
O'Farrell's third book is a really nice read, and shows nicely how she continued to develop her style since her initial and second novels. I enjoyed this more than her debut outing, but to be honest, I think I liked "My Lover's Lover" a touch more than this, although I think many O'Farrell fans may disagree with me. Still, all three of these first books pale in quality compared to "The Vanishing Act of Esme Lenox", which still remains my favourite, so far. I can't say that this book will appeal to as many men as it will to women, but I also wouldn't call this "chick-lit" either - it is, first and foremost, an interesting story, with a well developed plot and interesting characters, making it simply an all-round lovely read. Considering all this, I can certainly recommend this book, but can only give it four out of five stars due to those two niggles. by Davida Chazan
