Editor's Review ★★★★★

AudioBook Atlas

Frankie Corzo delivers a stellar performance that perfectly matches the story's tone. Her narration is clear and expressive, capturing Mariana’s nuanced emotions with subtlety and depth. The pacing is just right, maintaining tension as Mariana grapples with her father’s political ambitions. However, some scenes feel slightly rushed, particularly when trying to balance Mariana’s personal development against the fast-paced campaign events. Despite this minor critique, Running remains a poignant exploration of self-identity in the shadow of public scrutiny and a must-listen for any fan of coming-of-age stories.
