Editor's Review

AudioBook Atlas

As someone who's always been more of a bookworm than a gamer, I was pleasantly surprised by how quickly I was drawn into Hazel's world. Louisa Zhu's narration is a significant part of this. She imbues Hazel with a warmth and wit that's infectious, making it easy to root for her as she navigates her newfound feelings and her quest to win the band's top spot. The pacing is spot on, balancing the tension of Hazel's romantic pursuits with the camaraderie of her fellow band members and the thrill of her D&D campaign. My only critique is that the gaming lingo can sometimes feel a bit heavy-handed, but it's a small price to pay for such a unique and engaging listen. Overall, Rolls and Rivalry is a charming and refreshing take on the coming-of-age story that's perfect for anyone looking for a summer listen that's equal parts heartwarming and hilarious.
