The Deep Blue Between
by Ayesha Harruna Attah
Hassana and Husseina are twin sisters that are separated and given different paths after their home is raided.
This book is a historical fiction with a coming of age story between twins who have to find their way back to each other. Each twin experiences vastly different ways of life after their home was raided. I enjoyed learning about Candomble religion that Husseina experiences and practices! This book made me want to research Nigeria and Brazil during the 1890s with abolishment of slavery and how Europeans were involved there as well. I enjoyed this book a lot, especially the character development of both the twins!!
