Editor's Review ★★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

As a listener, I was immediately drawn into Jasmine's plight, her fiery determination resonating through Linda Stephens' passionate narration. Stephens' ability to differentiate characters, from Jasmine's feisty spirit to the mill's foreman's gruff authority, is commendable. The pacing is steady, allowing the story to unfold naturally, with enough tension and emotion to keep me engaged. Peterson and Miller's collaboration shines in the intricate plot and well-developed characters. However, I found some of the religious elements a bit heavy-handed at times, which might not resonate with all listeners. Overall, Lights of Lowell is a powerful, engaging listen that sheds light on a fascinating period in American history.
