The Other Half of Augusta Hope is her twin Julia - I loved this book and read it in 2 days - it's a quirky dual narrative story about a girl called Augusta who loves to read the dictionary and appears slighty odd to outsiders . At an early age she becomes obsessed with the country Burundi. The second narrative is from Parfait who lives in Burundi. They tell their stories in alternate chapters .
This is a story about Home and what it means to both Augusta and Parfait - They both have tragedys in their lives and are both looking for somewhere to belong.
I shed a few tears along the way reading this but loved it . It left me feeling that I had invested my time wisely reading this - looking forward to more books from this author
