Editor's Review ★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

Kristie Lee Walsh's narration adds an extra layer of tension to R. F. Kuang's already compelling storytelling in ‘Making Space.’ Her voice is both comforting and chilling, mirroring the story’s dual nature as it explores themes of acceptance and loss. The pacing is deliberate, allowing each twist and turn to resonate deeply. However, some may find the abrupt ending leaves too much unresolved, leaving a nagging question about what truly happened between the characters. Nonetheless, ‘Making Space’ is a powerful listen that will stay with you long after it ends.
