A World Between

A Novel

De: Emily Hashimoto

Narrado por: Cindy Kay, Saira Ayers

A college fling between two women turns into a lifelong connection - and spells out a new kind of love story for a millennial, immigrant America.

“A sweetly poignant look at the transformative power of young love.” (O, The Oprah Magazine)

In 2004, college students Eleanor Suzuki and Leena Shah meet in an elevator. Both girls are on the brink of adulthood, each full of possibility and big ideas, and they fall into a whirlwind romance. Years later, Eleanor and Leena collide on the streets of San Francisco. Although grown and changed and each separately partnered, the two find themselves, once again, irresistibly pulled back together.

Emily Hashimoto’s debut novel perfectly captures the wonder and confusion of growing up and growing closer. Narrated in sparkling prose, A World Between follows two strikingly different but interconnected women as they navigate family, female friendship, and their own fraught history.

I needed this book.

This book helped me with the acceptance of my sexuality and my story. Highly recommend it!

Spoiler Alerts Ahead

This book does not end happily ever after. There are some great parts but overall, I feel angry I endured hours of ugh to get to a horrible ending. It feels like the author wants us to write the epilogue ourselves. One narrator is Cindy Kay and she is wonderful as always. The other narrator is completely monotone. I amped up the speed for 2nd narrator. UGH

Red flags

Difficult to listen to, Narrator drops red flag after red flag. No understanding of consent.
