The Headmistress by Milena McKay6/7/2023 ![]() ![]() This story includes quite a few fantastic secondary characters, and to them as well Craden’s narration adds even more substance. Then there’s Audrey, her youth, her naiveté, her pain, her love… The contrast is magnificent and poignant. The others too but Neve first and foremost. I was especially looking forward to hearing Craden voice her. With Neve Blackthorne, McKay wrote one of the most complex characters and Craden’s talent shines in the voice she lends her, giving life to all the layers the author bestowed on her. Her narration of A Whisper of Solace is exactly what I hope for in an audiobook: it takes a brilliant story and elevates it even higher. I do find certain books better suited to her style, however, and Milena McKay’s are definitely in this category. ![]() She’s not the only fabulous narrator but she’s obviously in my top 5. There’s a reason, many reasons actually, why so many authors of sapphic fiction want Abby Craden to narrate their books. ![]() I don’t see what I can add to my original review, not without saying too much, so I’ll focus on the narration. I’ve said and written my love for A Whisper of Solace so many times since it was released in April that I don’t think anyone who reads my reviews, even only occasionally, doesn’t already know about it. Edit: October 10th, 2022, audiobook review.ĭamn, this book… Seriously. ![]()
