The Between: A Novel by Tananarive Due

challenging dark emotional mysterious

4.0

A young boy loses his grandmother when she saves him from drowning. Years later, he starts having dreams that turn his life upside down. Was he meant to die that day in the ocean? Has he been living on borrowed time?  I really loved this story. Due’s writing is so descriptive and sharp. Her characters are very real. I appreciated the racial commentary as well. This was such a great look into someone spiraling down into their dreams and thoughts, not really knowing what is real anymore. There is certainly horror in that.
