Editor's Review ★★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

Christian Coulson as Max Walker and Kate Reading as his mother bring depth and emotion to their roles, creating a believable and immersive atmosphere. The narrative is both poignant and powerful, tackling complex issues with honesty and grace. The pacing is deliberate yet compelling, allowing the story's intricate details to unfold gracefully. However, some scenes feel slightly drawn out, which could have benefited from tighter editing. Despite this minor critique, Golden Boy remains a must-listen for fans of LGBTQ+ literature and well-crafted audiobooks.
