Show Notes
January LaVoy makes this an A+ listen. AudioFile Publisher Michele Cobb and Jo Reed discuss the ways in which January’s performance beautifully finds the sadness, desperation, and humor in the audiobook. These Colorado parents are willing to do anything to get their kids recognized as gifted, landing them a spot in the exclusive Crystal Academy. January creates distinct voices and personalities for both children and adults, particularly the four friends at the novel’s center. The only question we’re left with is which parent we identify with most, for good or ill. Published by Penguin Audio.
