I always have such a hard time writing a review for an audiobook. Because itโs an interpretation of something thatโs also subjective - and because, like in this case, the audio can totally impact my appreciation of the book.

๐ ๐ฅ๐ฒ๐๐ถ๐ฒ๐: Iโm not the biggest fan of Melissa Fosterโs writing to begin with, and a cringy audio didnโt make it any better unfortunately.
Itโs hard to describe, because sheโs not a bad writer by any means. Her stories are solid. Language and grammar and structure are all there. But here characters are sometimes stereotypical and her dialogue is a little cringe. Her latest work is sooooo much better, but this serves me right for reading a 6-year-old book.
Didnโt love the audio at all. It just didnโt hit right or enhance my reading in any way. Bummed, but not mad if that makes sense.
