A review by kellymack
Between Us by Claire Atkins

5.0

I started crying about half way through, and didn’t stop until the end.

This is an absolutely beautiful book that perfectly describes the lives of asylum seekers, and the way that indefinite incarceration can impact not only the detainees, but also the insidious way that it can influence the guards of detention centres.

A heartbreaking story of young love and mental health breakdowns. Highly recommended.
