"Aksamit's intelligence, curiosity, and commitment to exploring the prism of her peripatetic life, while honoring the incredible foundation of love her parents gave her, make for an engaging read. By the end it is a profound and moving expression of an extraordinary life that has been fully lived and understood. The memoir tells a vivid story that comes to a very satisfying conclusion."

"An “aha” moment for travel addicts and “rootless” passport holders, Inga’s story brings this subculture experience to the limelight as she threads her story via her unlikely globetrotting childhood and jarring personal experiences wrought from her family’s flights from violent international conflicts. If you enjoy living on the edge, “Between Worlds” will bring you to it—and back."

"If you have ever lived in between cultures and felt misunderstood by others around you, this book is for you. Inga Aksamit’s memoir takes us on her personal journey of growing up in different countries and her search for belonging. Her story resonates with many Third Culture Kids who try to make sense of their upbringing and how it has shaped them today. Beautifully written, and raw to the complexities of navigating a globally mobile life. A must read!"

"Between Worlds takes the reader on a tour of Inga Aksamit’s remarkable life involving, among many other things, a series of evacuations from war zones, and a bewildering succession of new schools where Inga is always the new girl. Displaying an unfailing openness to other cultures and with the support of her loving and resourceful parents, Inga seems to have emerged unscathed from all this and it is only in a moving section towards the end of the book that Inga and the reader discover the hidden traumas that her unconventional upbringing has left her with. A fascinating read."
