A young adult novel that centers around a high schooler who has recently gone through a horrible tragedy - watching her sister die in front of her and it is wrapped in mounds of guilt. Her parents pick up the family and move them away to start fresh in a new town from Colorado to Texas. This high schooler is not your typical teenager, she is also a youtuber with a channel with a lot of subscribers, but since this tragedy she hasn't uploaded a video and is second guessing this hobby/job.

I enjoyed reading a book that integrated youtube into it. How fun for the young adult population to read a book that is current and with the times! I also loved that there were news articles and comments in the book. I love when an author gets creative and includes other forms of literature to move the story along.

Although I rarely read young adult books now, it is nice to read them every so often and read outside of my wheelhouse. So a good read, but not a great one.

Torrey Grey is famous. At least, on the internet. Thousands of people watch her popular videos on fashion and beauty. But when Torrey's sister is killed in an accident -- maybe because of Torrey and her videos -- Torrey's perfect world implodes.

Now, strangers online are bashing Torrey. And at her new school, she doesn't know who to trust. Is queen bee Blair only being sweet because of Torrey's internet infamy? What about Raylene, who is decidedly unpopular, but seems accepts Torrey for who she is? And then there's Luis, with his brooding dark eyes, whose family runs the local funeral home. Torrey finds herself drawn to Luis, and his fascinating stories about El dio de los Muertos, the Day of the Dead.

As the Day of the Dead draws near, Torrey will have to really look at her own feelings about death, and life, and everything in between. Can she learn to mourn her sister out of the public eye?

Can't Look Away is a cute and girly YA novel that I really enjoyed reading. I loved that the author picked out the idea to make Torrey a beauty vlogger, something very popular at the moment. But she didn't make Torrey and artificial girl. And also the topic that was woven into the book of the Dia de los Muertos was very interesting and gave the book a nice flavour.

The story had sad and happy moments, especially around Torrey's sister Miranda after her tragic car accident. some of the flashbacks showing you what Miranda was like (she was a kid I probly would've been friends with). One particular memory of a beach trip and a moonstone bracelet were my favorites.
Gladly, Torrey has some amazing and genuine friends in this story, especially Luis. He is exactly what Torrey needs, altough she doesn't realize it right away. With him, she slowly starts to accept that Miranda isn't here anymore, and starts her healing process with tiny steps at a time

I definately recommend picking up Can’t Look Away!

As an avid YouTube watcher, this was the story I have been waiting for. It was a completely new concept with a gripping story. I was dying to know how it would end from the very first page.
