With Juno’s massive success, Elliot Page became one of the world’s most beloved actors. His dreams were coming true, but the pressure to perform suffocated him. He was forced to play the part of the glossy young starlet, a role that made his skin crawl. The career that had been an escape out of his reality and into a world of imagination was suddenly a nightmare. As he navigated criticism and abuse from some of the most powerful people in Hollywood, a past that snapped at his heels, and a society dead set on forcing him into a binary, Elliot often stayed silent, until enough was enough

Not only is this a very good book but also an important one. I wish it was required reading for all the anti LGBTQ’ers out there. Immersing themselves in Elliot’s story would help a lot of people understand and empathize.

Historia5 out of 5 stars 25
A terrifying encounter with an escaped convict in a graveyard on the wild Kent marshes, a summons to meet the bitter, decaying Miss Havisham, and her beautiful, cold-hearted ward, Estella, the sudden generosity of a mysterious benefactor. These form a series of events that change the orphaned Pip's life forever, and he eagerly abandons his humble origins to begin a new life as a gentleman.

Brilliant narration

There’s not much that hasn’t already been said about the brilliance of Dickens’ stories and writing style so I’ll address the narrator. Harry Lloyd is nothing short of astonishing. Every single character came completely to life thanks to the distinct accents, cadence and the personality he infused them with. I often forgot it was one man reading to me and not an entire cast of actors. He’s the best of the best that Audible has to offer.

Historia5 out of 5 stars 2
When Noel Bostock - aged 10, no family - is evacuated from London to escape the Nazi bombardment, he lands in a suburb northwest of the city with Vera Sedge - a 36-year-old widow drowning in debts and dependents. Always desperate for money, she's unscrupulous about how she gets it. Noel's mourning his godmother, Mattie, a former suffragette. Wise beyond his years, raised with a disdain for authority and an eclectic attitude toward education, he has little in common with other children and even less with the impulsive Vee.

I really enjoyed the story, the humour and the heart of it, but what made all the difference for me was Karen Cass's outstanding narration. I've listened to so many audio-books and she's the best I've ever heard. Each character is so fully realized and recognizable but never exaggerated. In my listening experience I've found it's often a challenge for a narrator to convincingly speak in the voice of the opposite gender but even this she pulls off flawlessly. A terrific listen.
