Nowhere But Here by Katie McGarryMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
This was an epic read. Everything about it felt unique and fresh. Motorcycle Club story in YA? Yes but not like the current MC reads that are out there.
Emily is happy in her protected life at 17 with her Mum and Dad. She also has a biological father but he is a awkward yearly visit that has to be tolerated. Emily's life changes with an emotional bombshell and she is exposed to her paternal family in an extended stay. Eli, Emily's Dad is in a MC and the family are like nothing she has ever experienced. Oz a young hopeful for the MC is put on babysitting detail. He's infuriating in his attitude, venom and perfect maleness.
This story is written in dual POV and it lends so much to the story to have Emily and Oz's perspective. The characters are wonderful, the family is diverse and some of my favourites were Olivia and Eli. I would have loved to get a bit more of Eli and Emily's relationship but it was a growing, developing connection. The writing was absorbing, fairly fast paced and each scene and relationship was beautifully narrated. I was so impressed with this story and it'll be shelved in my favourites of 2015.
The publisher provided a copy of this book in return for an honest review.
