Editor's Review ★★★★

AudioBook Atlas

Rebecca Lowman's narration brings Dara Torres' story vividly to life in ‘Age Is Just a Number’. Her voice is soothing yet energetic, mirroring Torres’ own passion and determination. The first few chapters, where Torres details her initial struggles with injury and self-doubt, are particularly poignant. However, the pacing can feel uneven at times, rushing through some technical aspects of swimming training while lingering over others. Nevertheless, Lowman’s ability to convey emotion through subtle inflections ensures that listeners remain fully engaged throughout. Her performance is a highlight, making this audiobook an inspiring and deeply personal listen.
