Editor's Review ★★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

I fell hard for Iris Kelly and her cast of quirky, lovable friends. Kristen DiMercurio's narration is a significant part of the audiobook's charm, bringing a warmth and humor to the story that's impossible to resist. DiMercurio's voice has just the right amount of sass to match Iris's wit and sarcasm, and her delivery is always spot-on. One of the things that impressed me most about Iris Kelly Doesn't Date is its thoughtful exploration of complex relationships. Blake tackles themes like identity, consent, and the blurred lines between friendship and romance with sensitivity and nuance, never shying away from tough conversations. If I have any criticisms, it's that the supporting cast can feel a bit one-dimensional at times, particularly the love interest. However, this is a minor quibble in an otherwise excellent audiobook. Overall, I'd highly recommend Iris Kelly Doesn't Date to anyone looking for a fun, engaging, and thought-provoking listen.
