Review: Miles Away from You

Miles Away from You Miles Away from You by A.B. Rutledge
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

It has been eighteen months since Miles lost his best friend, Vivian, to a suicide attempt. She has been on life support and her parents have let the domain to her blog lapse and Miles is feeling the loss all over again. One of his mothers believes a trip to Iceland is just what he needs, but he has made the hotel room his sanctuary and is not getting the full Iceland experience. It takes the hotel manager, Oskar, pushing him to experience Iceland with his camera to get him out of his self-imposed depression. Will Miles find healing from the loss of Vivian?

Miles Away from You is a stand-alone novel full of heartbreak and love. The story is told in a series of instant messages from Miles to Vivian so each section is quick to read and the story flows without much effort. Rutledge has taken many tough topics and has worked them together into one emotionally charged story that most readers will be able to relate to. Miles Away from You is a good read that doesn’t push a specific set of values on the reader.
