Editor's Review ★★★☆★

AudioBook Atlas

Beverly Ann Astley’s narration is nothing short of brilliant in 'Donut Dolly.' Her voice brings the story to life with such passion and authenticity that it's hard not to become deeply invested in Kotcher’s journey. The pacing, while deliberate, never lulls; each moment feels purposeful, whether detailing the horrors of the battlefield or depicting the quiet moments of friendship and resilience. One critique: at times, the storytelling can feel a bit too introspective, which might make listeners long for more external detail. But overall, this audiobook is an emotional rollercoaster that offers a fresh perspective on one woman's extraordinary role in history.
