Loved

any book that she has that is written in verse which is the poet x and clap when you land it's almost read as if it is slam poetry so it ends up being really engaging you feel like you're sitting in front of her and she's performing for you so it's so enthralling

Liked

the next two are ones that i recommend because the author narrates them and it is a good example of when it's important for an author to narrate their own book and that is long way down and for everyone by jason reynolds

Loved

she made the story really engaging and really good and she brought a lot of emotion to the characters especially when this dealt with such a difficult topic like undocumented immigrants and racism and classism

Loved

i think that it wouldn't have come across as well without him having narrated it because you can tell the passion and the energy that he feels for these kids that are a judge especially when we talk about this cycle of violence and how it affects our kids

Loved

this trilogy was really good and i recommend listening to it on audio because the voices are so distinct and they bring so much light to each one of the characters i had fun reading it and it is definitely one of my top middle grade series

Liked

i loved her narration of pride because she just brought this vibe to it that made it just a more enjoyable read even though it wasn't one of my favorites

Loved

some of the music is really good and i had never experienced an audio book like that before and i was like you know what i really want to listen to more audiobooks like this because incorporating like the author singing music that they actually wrote was just completely fascinating

Liked

what's really great about this one is that it also has sound effects so it makes the story super engaging and dynamic i would recommend listening to this one but i also would recommend following along with the physical book because nk jemisin writes some pretty complex worlds and listen to it on audio it's easy to get confused
