“When I say listening to this was transcendent, know that I don't say such things lightly. The audiobook is narrated by the author herself, and it further reminded me that poetry is meant to be read aloud, to be listened to. To be spoken by the writers and consumed in the exact way they want you to. Reading poetry in your own voice, with your own inflections and stresses, taking those parts that mean the most to you, is important, and a good way to read and learn poetry, but there is something...”

“Readers who loved <em>Hamnet</em> will find in this novel the same luminous moments, the same perfectly curated details, that made O'Farrell's earlier novel so astonishing and memorable. This time, O'Farrell takes us into the mind of a young artist during the Renaissance, and seldom has a novel so brilliantly captured the terror of darkness, the intense awareness of discovery, or the thrill of the unfamiliar that form the context of some of the greatest works of art in western Europe. And yet...”

“For every reader who loves a fresh retelling of an old story, this audiobook is the perfect way to read one. The narrator does all the voices, from the charming to the revolting to the terrifying, with a character actor's panache and paces his performance perfectly as the tension rises.”

“This is it. This is the magical school story that adults who grew up in the 90s and 00s have been hoping to find: one that incorporates a beautiful, erudite, delightfully post-steampunk world of magic, but that is ultimately about the hopes and the friendships of young people who came from outside the elite class, and whose lives have been shaped by their own intelligence and by the colonialism and capitalism that are ingrained in their magical world. What they decide to do with their gifts r...”

“<em>Lavender House</em> is more than a book, it's an experience: Love, Loss, Redemption, all lathered up in the very gay Lamontaine Estate set in 1952 San Francisco. Lev AC Rosen created a delightfully quirky and queer cast of characters for this historical fiction, and the narrator, Vikas Adams, brings so much personality to the voice of each character and flair to spinning the suspenseful murder mystery.

“<em>Whiteout</em> is a fun young adult rom-com with African-American protagonists set up in interlocking short stories that will encompass the entire city of Atlanta during an epic snowstorm. Each character and story are connected to the others in one way or the other. Whether they are stuck at the Hartsfield Jackson airport, in a car on 1-85, or in the Georgia Aquarium, just to mention a few, each character will not be able to avoid two things, snow and love. I highly recommend this book for...”
