Editor's Review ★★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

Listening to 'We Are the Luckiest' felt like I was eavesdropping on a friend's heartfelt conversation. Laura McKowen's narration is so personal, so present, that I found myself leaning in, not wanting to miss a single word. Her pacing is excellent, building tension and releasing it like a master storyteller. She has a knack for weaving profound insights into her anecdotes, making them both relatable and thought-provoking. I appreciated her honesty, even when it made me squirm, and I loved her ability to find joy and gratitude in the smallest moments. My only critique is that at times, the transitions between past and present could be smoother, but this is a minor quibble in an otherwise exceptional audiobook.
