Great story, very well performed.

Where does Purple Moon rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

It is really well done. The reader does a great job of letting you know who is speaking and it feels very natural listening to the story.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Purple Moon?

I think the whole story is really memorable, but if I have to pick just one I would say leading up to and just after the car wreck.

What does Michelle Sargent bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Her reading is smooth and fun, she does a great job of varying for different characters and she helps bring the story to life.

When Selena moves in with her cousin for the summer, he life becomes a whirlwind of internal conflict between the life she wants and the life she knows.
