Editor's Review ★★★★★

AudioBook Atlas

Curtis Michael Holland delivers a stellar performance, perfectly embodying Micah's complex emotions. His voice is soothing yet carries the weight of Micah's PTSD, making each narrative thread vividly real. The story’s pacing is deliberate, allowing listeners to fully immerse themselves in the unfolding drama and the subtle nuances of Micah's character. However, the supernatural elements could have benefited from more clear delineation to keep everything grounded. Despite this minor critique, ‘Shake Out the Ghosts’ is a must-listen for those seeking deeply felt queer romance with a twist.
