Editor's Review ★★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

George M Johnson's narration is nothing short of brilliant, perfectly capturing the essence of his characters. His voice is both soothing and dynamic, seamlessly transitioning between the playful banter of childhood and the somber realities of growing up. The story unfolds with a natural pace that keeps you engaged from start to finish. However, some scenes feel slightly rushed, potentially due to the concise format, which might have allowed for even richer development. Despite this minor critique, 'We Are Not Broken' is an audiobook that delivers on its promise of celebrating Black boyhood’s complexity and beauty. It's a must-listen for those who value authenticity in storytelling.
