Editor's Review ★★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

Listening to Perfect was like sitting through a gripping theater production. The performances by Aya Cash as Tori, Heather Lind as Kayla, Aaron Tveit as Cole, and Tristan Wilds as Max are nothing short of brilliant. Each narrator captures the essence of their character’s voice—emotional, complex, and often raw. The story itself is a masterclass in narrative construction, weaving together four distinct yet interconnected threads that culminate in a powerful climax. However, some scenes felt a bit too on-the-nose with their messages about mental health and self-worth, which could be seen as preachy by listeners looking for a more subtle approach. Despite this, Perfect remains an essential listen for anyone intrigued by the complexities of teenage life.
