The In-BetweenTeaser: 

The house in crumbling. The birds are lurking in the trees, rattling the windows, pecking my brain. 


The In-Between by Barbara Stewart

  
  
        


When Elanor’s near-death experience opens a door to a world inhabited by bold, beautiful Madeline, she finds her life quickly spiraling out of control

Fourteen-year-old Elanor Moss has always been an outcast who fails at everything she tries—she's even got the fine, white scars to prove it. Moving was supposed to be a chance at a fresh start, a way to leave behind all the pain and ugliness of her old life. But, when a terrible car accident changes her life forever, her near-death experience opens a door to a world inhabited by Madeline Torus . . . Madeline is everything Elanor isn’t: beautiful, bold, brave. She is exactly what Elanor has always wanted in a best friend and more—their connection runs deeper than friendship. But Madeline is not like other girls, and Elanor has to keep her new friend a secret or risk being labeled “crazy.” Soon, though, even Elanor starts to doubt her own sanity. Madeline is her entire life, and that life is drastically spinning out of control. Elanor knows what happens when your best friend becomes your worst enemy. But what happens when your worst enemy is yourself?

With her debut novel, The In-Between, Barbara Stewart presents a bold new voice in teen fiction.

  4. Oh yeah...I forgot Colleen mentioned another book in her Tiger's Saga, it seemed finished to me too. I thought it might have to do with Kishan. But yeah, just saw on Goodreads Tiger's Dream, the final book in the Tiger's Saga.

    Really, really starting to think I should've read Boundless since I never did. I read the first two books in the trilogy on Netgalley and then they never got the last book like I thought they would and then my memory of the first two totally dissolved, so I didn't bother. But thinking I ought to soon!

    Here's my Tuesday Post

    Have a GREAT day!
