 My Review:
OMG!!! Brenna Yovanoff where have you been hiding?? And why haven’t I picked up any of  your books sooner, Brenna’s book The Space Between  enveloped me so fast , that when I finished  it  I was so  sad to see it end  It turned out to  be a standalone book that proved to be so much more. Lately I felt as if I have been reading nothing but trilogy's/series that were never ending don’t get me wrong I do love them but sometimes you just need a good standalone and I was finding it hard to find one till The Space Between, But when you get to adore the main characters as much as I did, saying good-bye to Daphne & Truman turned out to be a little difficult sniff sniff.
The Space Between is an amazing and intriguing story that spans from Heaven to Hell and in between hence the name The Space Between. It contain names of demons and angles that you may have or haven’t ever read about before but don’t let it fool you it’s a really different read. It grips and reaches down into the darkest depths of Hell, and the not so happy corners of Earth.
 Daphne is very quiet keeps to herself daughter of a demon and a fallen angel. She lives in pits Hell, in a city called Pandemonium she has siblings who are the darkest of the dark who work feed and collect lost souls on earth and Daphne just doesn’t understand how they can do this with no remorse but then again this is Hell we’re talking about.
 But one day big changes happen when her brother Obie goes missing he’s the only person to ever have understand Daphne, Obie has been the best thing about Hell itself for her, he’s the only one who’s truly cared about his sister and Daphne feels the same. They have this bond that is unbreakable and she’s is the only one who cares enough to go to Earth to look for him when he goes missing and is presumed dead! She leaves the protection of her city and home, unaware of what to expect on Earth, She is not only searching for Obie but also a boy named Truman who was the last human ever to see her brother alive. But Truman turns out to have lots of his own secrets. His own serious unpleasant issues that turn out to be deep dark dysfunction that she just can’t put her finger on, the storyline is dark and gridy it was just that good. 
My Final Thoughts:
I so loved and I mean loveedddd! The Space Between it was on my TBR list forever I fell in love with its cover the first time I saw. It was a challenge to get it into my hands a big one at that but when I did I didn’t put it down.
You need to pick this novel up ASAP!!! I promise you will love every page …
