Editor's Review

AudioBook Atlas Editorial Team

Listening to 'Ann Veronica' felt like eavesdropping on a lively, spirited conversation. Liz Pearce's narration is nothing short of exceptional, her voice shifting effortlessly between Ann Veronica's youthful exuberance and her more mature, introspective moments. Wells' writing is sharp and witty, and Pearce's delivery brings out the best in it. The pacing is excellent, keeping the story engaging and preventing it from becoming bogged down in its more philosophical moments. My only critique is that some of the supporting characters could have been more fully developed, but this is a minor quibble in an otherwise excellent audiobook.
