Romance. Travel Literature. Young Adult Fiction. Young Adult Literature. HTML:An unforgettable new series from acclaimed author Katie McGarry about taking risks, opening your heart and ending up in a place you never imagined possible
Seventeen-year-old Emily likes her life the way it is: doting parents, good friends, good school in a safe neighborhood. Sure, she's curious about her biological father??the one who chose life in a motorcycle club, the Reign of Terror, over being a parent??but that doesn't mean she wants to be a part of his world. But when a reluctant visit turns into an extended summer vacation among relatives she never knew she had, one thing becomes clear: nothing is what it seems. Not the club, not her secret-keeping father and not Oz, a guy with suck-me-in blue eyes who can help her understand them both.
Oz wants one thing: to join the Reign of Terror. They're the good guys. They protect people. They're...family. And while Emily??the gorgeous and sheltered daughter of the club's most respected member??is in town, he's gonna prove it to her. So when her father asks him to keep her safe from a rival club with a score to settle, Oz knows it's his shot at his dream. What he doesn't count on is that Emily just might turn that dream upside down.
No one wants them to be together. But sometimes the right person is the one you least expect, and the road you fear the most is the one that lea

I really enjoyed this book and loved the character of O.z. It took me a long time to grow to understand Emily character and that is why it was harder for em to get through this book. I really grew to like Emily. This book was the first in a new series by this author and it was a good read. It dealt with topics like cancer and complex family relationships and what makes a family. Great read! ( )

Reseña Completa: El Extraño Gato del Cuento

La publicidad del libro dice que Nowhere But Here es la unión entre Sons of Anarchy y West Side Story. Lástima que no vi ni la serie ni la película. Pero sé quién es Charlie Hunnam y este gatito ha visto cuanto gif set o vídeos interesantes de Hunnam en la serie. ¿Emocionada por la historia a pesar de no haber visto ninguno de los shows? Obvio que sí, Katie McGarry sabe entretener muy bien.

Al principio pensé que la historia entre Oz y Emily se desarrollaría de manera diferente, esperaba un libro típico (chico-malo, chica-buena, drama, amor, final) pero hay algo en la forma en que Katie trata sus historias que me hacen sentir que estoy leyendo algo completamente nuevo y no debo dejar de leer. Y es que McGarry tiene un gran cuidado en los personajes secundarios, no son solo ruido de fondo hechos para que nuestros protagonistas consigan el amor y uno como lector tenga un par de horas de lectura simple.

Y a veces tener personajes secundarios encantadores tiene su lado positivo porque esperas que le den su libro. Pero también puede tener un lado malo, como cuando te encariñas con ellos por lo perfectos de sus defectos y luego llegas a enterarte que tienen más drama en sus vidas que los protagonistas mismos.

Y, también, no creo haber sido capaz de leer un libro sobre los padres de Emily. ¿Has leído algún libro de Madeline Sheehan? Quizá no tan dramático y oscuro como sus libros pero sin duda el pasado de estos señores es algo en lo que no quiero pensar. ¿Por qué? Porque, cuando lees un libro con romance, y llega el final feliz, cierras el libro y vives con la certeza que ellos son felices para siempre. En la vida real no pasa eso, no hay un fin y corrida de créditos. Exactamente eso hace Katie McGarry en sus libros ¡hace que te des cuenta de la realidad! ¡Y la realidad no es bonita!

MI ÚNICO PROBLEMA

¿viste que le puse 4 de 5 estrellas? Mi problema es uno que no puedo decir porque es un mega spoiler :D El horror, la verdad. Voy a tratar de explicarlo lo menos spoileador posible, si lees el libro, quizá me entiendas.

Mi único problema es una combinación entre la falta de comunicación que vemos en Romeo y Julieta más una especie de doble moral. Ya te confundí, ya lo sé. Lo que pasa es que lo que se aplica para algunos de los personajes de Nowhere But Here, ese especie de duda/redención, ni siquiera se piensa para otros de los personajes, los cuáles en mi opinión como sí la merecían. Todo eso hizo un poco gracioso lo que nos llevó al final, fue tan shakesperiano (si existe la palabra y se me deja usarla a pesar de no tener autoridad para hacerlo).

I expected more. It started great. Then I realized that a YA novel shouldn't feel so much like musical chairs. Every YA book is not created equal. I couldn't crack 300- abandoned. ( )

“There’s a reason why people shouldn’t talk at four in the morning. Exhaustion eliminates the ability to lie. It demolishes the ability to tiptoe around the truth. Emotions are too exposed and real. Heightened to the point of explosion.”

This is a beautiful story about family, and the lengths people will go to in order to keep them safe. Emily is unaware of her mother's past, as well as her own, and soon finds herself needing to uncover the truth no matter the consequences. She not only puts herself at risk, but endangers Oz and the new family she has started to care about.

Katie McGarry has always been able to write compelling stories with amazing characters, and Nowhere but Here was everything I wanted it to be. I fell in love with the people in this book, even though their way of life was unfamiliar to me, and likely not something I will ever experience for myself. It was different, and I'm glad I was able to see the world through that perspective. I love that books allow you to view a part of the world that you might not ever see for yourself.

Lying never works. It doesn't work in life, and it doesn't work in books. Lies create problems and make existing issues worse. If Emily's family had been honest with her from the beginning, there would have been a lot less danger and heartache.

I really enjoyed alternating perspectives between Emily and Oz. They are two completely different people, but they were able to see past their differences and find what really matters.
