Editor's Review ★★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

Sanya Simmons' narration is nothing short of exceptional; her deep, soothing voice effortlessly transports you into the worlds of the six women whose stories unfold. Each narrator's performance adds layers of emotion and depth to their respective tales. The pacing is deliberate yet engaging, allowing ample time for reflection without dragging. However, some sections could benefit from clearer transitions between speakers, occasionally making it slightly confusing which woman's perspective you're hearing. Despite this minor issue, Lifting as They Climb remains a captivating audiobook that delves into the rich tapestry of Black feminist thought and spirituality.
