One Step Too Far was such a frustrating book! I was totally
suckered in by the summary that dared me to figure out Emily’s secret. But when
I found out the secret, I was letdown. I expected something totally different
and I felt cheated by the ending.
I liked the writing style and how we got scenes of Emily’s
past and present. I preferred the scenes building up to Emily running away from
her life. I kept trying to figure out what could’ve been so horrible to make
her leave.
The plot was very slow. I felt like a lot of mundane stuff
could’ve been left out to move the story along. Plus, there were too many
points of view and the constant switching felt jarring and unnecessary.
There were also a lot of horrible characters in the book.
Emily’s parents are horrible, Emily’s twin is horrible and for a lot of the
book Emily is horrible as well. I liked Angel, the best friend Emily makes
after she runs away. I liked that she seemed to found her happily ever after
over the course of the novel. To be honest, I think I related and liked the “bad”
twin Caroline the most.
I couldn’t guess the direction the novel was going so I
liked that there were a few surprises to come. I found the novel’s end
unsatisfying although loose ends were tied up. I just found some of the events
and Emily’s reaction to them a little unbelievable. There was a lot of
potential to the novel and I would check out more from the author.
Rating: 3/5 Stars
