Editor's Review ★★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

As a fan of historical fiction, I was delighted to find 'Boston Jacky' in my audiobook queue. Katherine Kellgren's narration is nothing short of exceptional, capturing Jacky's youthful exuberance and cunning with remarkable nuance. Her ability to seamlessly shift between characters, from the gruff sailors to the refined Bostonian ladies, is a testament to her skill. The story itself is a thrilling ride, with Jacky's business acumen and daring escapades keeping the plot afloat (pun intended). However, I must admit, the pacing can feel a tad slow at times, particularly during the more dialogue-heavy scenes. Nevertheless, 'Boston Jacky' is a captivating listen that had me eagerly anticipating the next chapter. It's a must-listen for fans of strong female protagonists and historical fiction with a dash of swashbuckling fun.
