Editor's Review ★★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

Listening to 'Sex at Dawn' is like having a thought-provoking conversation with a charismatic scientist. Ryan's ideas are provocative and often counterintuitive, but they're always backed by solid evidence. The narration is top-notch, with Johnson and Davis seamlessly tag-teaming the chapters, their voices complementing each other perfectly. They manage to make even the most academic passages engaging, while Ryan's preface adds a personal touch that makes the book feel more like a conversation than a lecture. The pacing is steady, allowing listeners to absorb the wealth of information without feeling overwhelmed. However, some listeners might find the frequent use of endnotes disruptive, as they occasionally break the flow of the narrative. Overall, 'Sex at Dawn' is a captivating listen that will leave you questioning and rethinking your assumptions about human sexuality.
