Editor's Review ★★★☆★

AudioBook Atlas

Madeleine Maby’s narration is nothing short of exceptional in 'The Sisters of Summit Avenue.' Her ability to distinguish between the voices of the two sisters, Mary and Lulu, elevates Lynn Cullen's already compelling script. The pacing is just right—slowing down during emotional scenes while speeding through mundane details. Yet, the audiobook occasionally feels a bit too focused on dialogue, which can make quieter passages a bit tedious. Despite this minor critique, it remains a deeply moving exploration of sisterhood and resilience.
