Publisher's Summary

Hollywood was abuzz recently with the news that Jessica Shirvington’s bestselling Embrace series was being adapted for television by the CW Network (The Vampire Diaries, Gossip Girl) and Steven Spielberg’s Amblin production company. Now Jessica is set to excite her YA fans with Between the Lives a psychological thriller that will hook you at first listen…

The perfect life or the perfect love. You choose. For as long as she can remember, Sabine has lived two lives. Every twenty-four hours she 'Shifts', living each day twice. She has one life in Wellesley, Massachusetts...and another, completely different life in Roxbury, Boston. In one life she's surrounded by glamorous friends and dresses in designer clothes, in the other her family struggles to make ends meet. In one life she’s a straight-A student with the perfect boyfriend, in the other she’s considered a reckless delinquent.

All Sabine has ever wanted is the chance to live one life. When it seems like this might finally be possible, Sabine begins a series of dangerous experiments to achieve her goal. But is she willing to risk everything – including the one man who might actually believe her?

good for intended YA audience

I often enjoy some YA novels. this one.. meh. nothing wrong with the author or narrator, just clearly meant for a younger crowd. not recommended if you're 20+

An enjoyable listen

This was a very enjoyable read. I didn't see the twists coming, and enjoyed it more for it.

Do not waste your money

Very bad choice of a narrator. The whole story was spoiled by her shrill voice with heavy Queens accent.

Don't waste your time.... life is too short!

What a shrill, horrible, narrator. Her peculiar accent detracts from the (blah) storyline, perhaps that's the point. I couldn't get through it.
