Editor's Review ★★★★

AudioBook Atlas

From the first sentence, Lindsey Dorcus sets a tone of unflinching honesty that keeps you hooked. Her performance is a highlight, seamlessly transitioning between Jordan’s awkward moments and her triumphant ones without losing momentum. The audiobook delves into themes of acceptance, friendship, and self-identity with an authentic voice that resonates deeply. However, some listeners might find the pacing slightly uneven at times; certain sections feel rushed while others drag just a bit. Despite this minor critique, the overall experience is overwhelmingly positive—featuring a vivid portrayal of adolescence filled with relatable characters and heartfelt moments.
