This is the prequel for Away From Here. It gives a little background into Logan’s story. I had a little trouble getting into the style in which this was written but it got easier as it went along. I have read several books by this author and this is totally different than anything else I have read by him so will just have to figure it out. I’m jumping into the main story now.
A prequel of an Away from here and it gives you characters to connect with and a story to look forward to !
Another great one
Let me start off by saying that this book was amazing! This book is narrated by the adult version of Logan Santiago the main chararcter as he recalls his first love Annalise and the impact that she has had on his life. Although this book is considered young adult I didn’t get the impression that I would not be able to relate to the characters if anything I think it added to the storyline and the feel of the book.
From the start of the book I found myself back in highschool and relating to Logan on a personal level. Although he had to grow up rather fast due to hkkllllis father leaving and his mother’s ongoing battle with depression; he deals with bouts of insecurity, and anxiety like every normal teenager while trying to find his place in the world.
The main theme throughout the book is that both Logan and Annalise are eachother’s link to being ”normal” when they want to escape the preesures of their everyday life. Although they had their ups and downs being eachother’s first love; one thing remains constant and its the fact that everyone comes into your life for a reason at the right time; at least that is what I believe and what I took from the book.
Christopher does an amazing job protraying the relationship between the two characters and the reader can’t help but be pulled in from the start. I would highly recommend this book without any hesitation…great job!!
The very beginning of Anna and Logan, where they are molten cakes and not yet potatoes. It makes sense. Trust me.
This is the prequel to the story Away From Here and it is a amazingly great story! The author definitely knows how to create and weave stories that draw your attention and hold it until you finish the book. I definitely recommend you read this book because if you don’t then you don’t know what you are missing.
I love the first sentence of “Our Story” because it sums up what life is all about.
“Perfect moments are the bananas of life.” Everything in the universe has to be lined up perfectly or you might miss your chance.
Logan spent two years at a Catholic high school before he was able to escape the strict rules and constant ridicule. He transferred to a public high school which came with its own set of problems. On his first day he met Annalise, the goddess of all things beautiful, when she helped him find his classroom after he had become terribly lost. Logan fell in love with Annalise that day but it took awhile for their paths to cross again so he could actually talk to her and get to know her. His best friend Pete couldn’t understand how he could be so crazy about a girl he didn’t really know, but Logan knew she would always be an important part of his life.
Logan never has much to look forward to at home, so his friendship with Pete and his infatuation with Annalise, keep him going and bring peace to his soul.
“Our Story” gives us a glimpse into Logan’s life and the friends who are so important to him. I hope everyone reads “Away From Here” because it is truly one of the best books I have ever read.
