The Distance Between Us



     So far in the book "The Distance Between Us" by Kasie West Caymen a poor girl living above a porcelain doll store, meets a tall and handsome rich boy. Her mother always told her to stay away from them, for they are always looking for fun. When they've had their fun they end up leaving you, no matter who they hurt. Having experience with her own father who she never met, she stays away and has that in mind every time rich people stop by their store. But when Xander comes she finds herself leaving the warning behind and letting him break down her walls.

     In the book the mother (Susan) of Caymen tells some words of the wiser when Caymen tells her mother that feelings don't cost anything. Her mother disagrees "Feelings, my dear daughter, you will perhaps learn one day, can be the most costly thing in the universe." I think that Caymen's mother learned this when she fell in love with her father (who later left both).  This life lesson will probably affect her later on in the book because she will probably understand it when she is later in love.

  1. Hmmm, very interesting quote/advice! What do you think about it! Don't be afraid to share your own personal ideas along with the facts of the book.
