RESTING SCROOGE FACE A Short Story

This cute holiday rom-com invites listeners to participate in Nola and Caleb's rekindled relationship. Narrators Carly Robins and Aaron Shedlock capture the main characters' emotions and inflections. Robins articulates the female voices a bit more distinctly than Shedlock does the two primary males, but, overall, the novella is easy to follow. There is a scene in which Caleb and Nola are reminiscing about high school, and it's hard to tell when the scene changes. In the book there's a divider between each conversation, but that is not reflected in the audio. Told both through letters as well as narrative and dialogue, the story moves quickly towards a satisfying ending. B.E.S. © AudioFile 2022, Portland, Maine [Published: DECEMBER 2022]
