Editor's Review ★★★★★

AudioBook Atlas

Soneela Nankani’s performance in ‘While You Were Dreaming’ is nothing short of brilliant. Her ability to convey the internal turmoil and external pressures faced by the characters is nothing less than exceptional. The story, though rooted in difficult situations, is told with a lightness that keeps it approachable yet profound. There's a particular scene during a family dinner where the tension is palpable, making for a memorable auditory experience. However, there are moments when the dialogue feels slightly stilted, which detracts from the overall flow. Nonetheless, this audiobook is a must-listen for anyone seeking a nuanced exploration of love and identity in contemporary YA fiction.
