Editor's Review ★★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

I was drawn into 'A Little Pinprick' from the very first chapter, captivated by the raw honesty of Paige Dearth's memoir. Lisa Larsen's narration is outstanding, perfectly capturing the vulnerability and strength of the protagonist's journey. Dearth's writing is darkly humorous at times, offering a much-needed break from the heaviness of her story. However, it's the emotional depth and the genuine portrayal of addiction that truly sets this audiobook apart. While I found some of the details surrounding Dearth's family life to be overly graphic, the overall impact of the audiobook is powerful and thought-provoking. I would highly recommend this audiobook to anyone looking for a memorable and engaging coming-of-age story.
