ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE

Narrator Phoebe Strole channels Jade's summer of first love and her search for her birth father. Strole embodies Jade's quirky likability as she finds a whole new life in suburban California, where she's now living under her aunt's roof, having left her mom, a rock star. Jade's ideas of normal flip when she falls for Quentin Ford, a handsome and responsible lifeguard whom Strole portrays with flirtatious sarcasm. Hints of Strole's verbal dexterity peek through as Jade embraces her expanding circle of friends and family. When Jade learns Quentin's secret, Strole balances Jade's naïveté and hurt with an earnestness that seems true to character. Reliably expressive and tender, this audiobook fits the bill for a romantic teen listen. E.A.N. © AudioFile 2018, Portland, Maine [Published: NOVEMBER 2018]
