Audiobook edition
I thoroughly enjoyed listening to this audiobook. The narrator, Jenna Lamia, was an excellent choice in my opinion. She sounded just like I thought she should sound, and added a lot of emotion to the story. I admired the main characters strengths (all of them!) - they were all very strong female figures. They probably had to be in the situations that they all found themselves to be in. I'm not big on regurgitating what a story is about - you only have to look at the book description above, but for me, this was very much an educational story. Having been brought up in the UK, I have never seen any of the situations described in the book - not to the extent that they are here anyway. That's the privilege I have of being middle classed, white and living in the UK I suppose (although I can remember a black teenager being shadowed around a toy shop by a member of staff for no reason at all. When I pointed out to them that their time might be better spent stocking the shelves, they didn't seem to have an answer for me as to why they felt the need to follow one customer around).
