Great Story
The story was wonderful Libba Bray is the perfect amount of wit and intrigue! Performance sometimes made the characters sound like children which was frustrating and distracting. The accents were well done.

Original YA story with great narration
I read this book in high school and remember really loving it. It was something I wanted to revisit and I'm glad I did so through the audiobook. The narrator does a fantastic job and has a great set of voices for each of the characters. There are 4 female main characters who are the same age and you can easily tell which one is talking just from the voice. There are also a number of different accents that characters have beyond standard posh English, including Indian and cockney, and the narrator does them fairly well.
The story for me still holds up. I generally prefer more adult fantasy now rather than YA but this story still kept my interest. The protagonist's point of view is witty and emotional and helps you get in her mindset and understand her actions. The setting is fun and mystical; the mix of historical fiction and fantasy is fun and engaging. I would recommend it for anyone who likes either of those genres.

An amazing story brought to life
I first read this story many years ago, when I was about 13-14 and I absolutely loved it. The narrative can be a bit flowery at times, but when you listen to the audiobook, you barely notice. The narrator does a fantastic job at bringing this wonderful story to life, I experienced it in a whole new way and gained an even deeper appreciation for it.
