A review by absurdbooknerd
The Wives of Los Alamos by TaraShea Nesbit

4.0

I will admit it took me a while to get used to the first person plural narration, but the subject matter was too fascinating to stop listening. I love historical fiction and getting lost in a place and time. This place and time is so specific, that I feel like I really got to know these wonderfully brave ladies. It was like getting to read numerous diaries all at once.

I did find the book a slow listen at times, but it was a quick listen so those times didn't last long. Tavia Gildbert's narration was just right. Nothing spectacular or overly memorable, but not wrong for the book either. In the end, it is not for everyone. Give it a try and if the FPPOV doesn't put you off, I think you will find it enjoyable.
