The Sound: I really liked this narrator! I thought she did a great job for each POV that we were in. No complaints here! The Story: I really thought I’d like this one more than I actually did.

She immediately chases after them, determined to avenge […]

I think I was expecting a fantasy akin to Rae’s previous series but Walk On Earth A Stranger felt primarily historical fiction with just a touch of fantasy. For me, this didn’t pose a problem […]
