Customer Reviews

Extraordinary!

I recommend this book to anyone who reads. I could not put it down. I finished it in one sitting - I simply had to. Kali VanBaale does an excellent job of putting the reader in the main character's point of view - that of the mother of a shooter who killed not only himself but two high school classmates and a teacher. You really get a taste of what happens on the opposite side of the coin. It should be on every Junior High, High School and College reading list. Showing the aftermath of what the family goes through might be something to help deter such events. I went out this morning and purchased copies for not only my own son but for my grandkids and neighbor kids as well.

Emotional & Thought Provoking

It really makes you think. When something like this happens, it is easy to condemn the parents. But you read this book and recognize yourself and wonder if you're as good a parent as you think you are. Parts of the book are agonizingly difficult to read because they are so real.

Amazing

Every so often I find myself wanting to take my time to finish a book because I like the characters so much. Every so often I find myself wanting to take my time to finish a book because it is so powerful. This book fit both situations. It is unforgettable.

Wonderful read!

As a mother of a teen my heart went out to the main character. It made you think how you would react if you were the parent of any of the kids involved. Well worth the read & would recommend to others!

Excellent Book Club Book

Our book club chose The Space Between just as it was being published and made available to the public. I thought the writing was excellent and the story engaging. We had a lively book club discussion and were fortunate to have Kali Vanbaale with us for the meeting. I would recommend this book to book clubs and individual readers alike. I am looking forward to reading more from Ms. Vanbaale.
