The Non-Obvious Book of the Week: The Space Between Worlds by Micaiah Johnson

In a world where multiverses are real, there's just one catch ... no one can visit a world where they already have a living counterpart. The main character in this book, Cara, happens to have parallel selves that are "exceptionally good at dying." That's the setup for this speculative science fiction novel that crosses space and time to tell a story of survival and what it takes to discover your own identity and sense of belonging when the world around you keeps shifting. When this book first came out a few years ago, NPR and several others called it "one of the best books of the year."

About the Non-Obvious Book Selection of the Week:

Every week I share a new “non-obvious” book selection. Titles featured here may be new or classic books, but the date of publication doesn’t really matter. My goal is to elevate great reads that perhaps deserve a second look which you might have otherwise missed.
