Editor's Review ★★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

Victoria Graves delivers an impeccable performance in her narration, perfectly embodying Lola’s youthful spirit and resilience. Her ability to modulate tone and pitch enhances the emotional impact of each scene, whether it's the raw intensity of a confrontation or the gentle tenderness of a tender moment. The story is a whirlwind—part coming-of-age tale, part social commentary on 1980s Australian society. The pacing is relentless but never feels rushed; every twist and turn is skillfully plotted to keep listeners hooked. However, some might find the narrative’s complexity overwhelming at times, making it harder to follow than a more straightforward journey. Despite this, Lola in the Mirror remains an unforgettable listen that captures both the joys and sorrows of growing up with unflinching authenticity.
