Imogen Wilde's narration is nothing short of brilliant; her subtle inflections and emotional depth bring the nuances of addiction to vivid life. The journey is intense and sometimes harrowing, but her performance keeps you tethered to every word. The book delves into childhood trauma with a clinical eye while also capturing the personal struggles with immense empathy. While some sections can be heavy, Wilde's reading makes them easier to bear. A standout aspect is the seamless interweaving of scientific research and Jenny’s own experiences—making this audiobook both enlightening and deeply moving.
