#ROTD #AudiobookReview As Mona Awad returns to the #DarkAcademia of her cult classic, BUNNY, Sophie Amoss artfully handles the challenging narration. From chirpy to authoritarian, Amoss captures the quirky, sociopathic Bunnies. #LiteraryHorror #EarphonesAward #simonaudio bit.ly/46Nh3xZ

#ROTD #AudiobookReview Gabra Zackman's performance effectively demonstrates a kind of narration multitasking. In one way, she's conveying a diabolical true-crime mystery, complete with myriad details and dead ends #EarphonesAward #prhaudio bit.ly/45xQxrQ

#ROTD #AudiobookRV Curiosity-driven research has led to discoveries in many unexpected areas, such as land–mine detecting rats, fish cannons to transport fish, & mantis shrimp "fight clubs." Narrator Eileen Stevens strikes an upbeat tone. #EarphonesAward hachetteaudio.bsky.social bit.ly/4ftTVqY

#ROTD #AudiobookRV #GoldenVoice George Guidall masterfully draws listeners into Sheriff Walt Longmire’s search for a missing woman in Wyoming’s Red Desert. Craig Johnson’s vivid descriptions are matched by Guidall’s pacing and tone. #EarphonesAward @recordedbooks.bsky.social bit.ly/416dAHn

#ROTD #AudiobookReview #ReviewOfTheDay Emily Rankin’s performance is so subtle that she disappears completely into this novel. Michelle Huneven’s family saga combines tenderness, sadness, joy, and grief with exquisite prose and psychological insights. #EarphonesAward #prhaudio bit.ly/4kUWMdI
