My review of While I Was Away by Stylo Fantome


Adele Reins has been dating Charlie Kassen for the past three years and the two finally realize that they are more friends than lovers anymore and decide that it is time to split so they both can find the one for them.

But life has a funny way of turning out sometimes and on their way home the two are involved in a serious car accident that leaves Adele in a coma.

Can Charlie stand by Adele while her future remains unknown and how will her three brothers deal with Adele’s situation?

What happens when you are in a coma and is Adele living her own life?

This was such an amazing book that dealt with heartbreak and a unique way of seeing a person in a coma from a completely different view.

I loved that Charlie and Adele were able to part as friends and really saw their relationship as changed but they knew they would always be close. My heart broke for the car accident and I really felt sorry for Charlie having to remain in a relationship with Adele while she was in the hospital all the while knowing that they had split up.

I liked how each of the brothers dealt with the tragedy and I really hope we get a more in depth look at each of them. They each had their own issues to deal with but Adele was their heart and soul and I loved how they all came together to be there for her and most importantly never gave up on her.

I really loved how we saw Adele in her coma and it honestly just brought such peace to the whole situation. I absolutely loved it and I understood why she was scared to leave.

When everything happens after my heart was so broken for Adele as she was almost living in two different worlds as the person she thought she truly knew wasn’t necessarily the person that was out there and it broke her heart when she finally really came to terms with it all. I was so sad for her!

I loved when certain pieces began to fall into place but then the ride home just destroyed me!!

After holding my breath for what felt like forever I was so pleased with the ending but I truly need so much more!!

5 Stars
