GHOSTS OF HARVARD

This audiobook is not what it seems, and its unpredictable twists make Francesca Serritella's mystery worth listening to. The story focuses on Cady Archer, a Harvard freshman dealing with the emotional baggage of her brother's suicide who begins to hear multiple voices--not just any voices, but voices whose existence is tied to her new school. Listeners will appreciate Karissa Vacker's fine performance as she inhabits Cady and conveys her emotions as each voice speaks and attempts to torment and control her. But all is never as it seems, and Vacker's ability to use nuanced tones and a varied pace to handle those moments allows listeners to share Cady's journey, and the ultimate resolution of her conflicted psyche.
