THE SPACE BETWEEN HERE & NOW

With consistent pacing and passion, Joy Osmanski delivers this fascinating audiobook about Aimee's desperation to find answers about her missing mother. Aimee has a rare condition that causes her to travel through time to revisit her memories when she is triggered by nostalgic smells. Her father's sparse explanation about her mother doesn't match what she experiences while reliving her childhood, and only an impromptu trip to Korea might give her the answers she seeks. Osmanski shifts smoothly between Korean and English, as well as a few accents. She voices Aimee thoughtfully, depicting her emotions faithfully as she struggles to come to terms with her distant father and absent mother. Her youthful voice for young Aimee is particularly charming. A.K.R. © AudioFile 2023, Portland, Maine [Published: DECEMBER 2023]
