Other reviews at The Book Babe's Reads. For me, Out of Reach was an interesting read - I enjoyed seeing the effects of addiction on family members - a lot of the time, we read more about the person who's addicted. It was nice to see some variation to the trope. But I went into Out of Reach expec...

BOOK, Y U NO LONGER? 3.5 stars Carrie Arcos,you did a wonderful job with this debut novel. I'm gonna label this as a road trip book.
