Editor's Review ★★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

Tavia Gilbert's narration in 'All Waiting Is Long' is nothing short of brilliant. Her ability to shift between the youthful innocence of Lily and the worn-down pragmatism of Violet is astounding. Each sister's voice is distinct yet fully realized, bringing the characters to life in a way that makes it impossible not to become emotionally invested. The pacing is impeccable—slowing down during tender moments while speeding up through tense ones. The production quality is top-notch, enhancing the listening experience with carefully chosen background sounds and music cues. However, at times, some of the flashbacks feel slightly disjointed from the main narrative, detracting slightly from an otherwise seamless journey.
