About this listen

Her body is thawing, and the smell of death is oozing from her. I want to be sick, but I say nothing. I watch like I was told. Good girls, listen. I want to rub my legs clean; I want a shower. Startled when my mom announced she was done. I finally see. Even though I was watching, I did not truly see. I say nothing. I sit and watch. Wishing for heaven too.
Survival is all I can think of, I must do as they say, or I will be next. I am trying to be strong but failing many times. Will I leave the summer alive? will I get to start 8th Grade? I was finally able to tell on my parents. Now I am traveling in the foster care system. I await trial. I am scared, but I will testify against them. For Alexia’s memory. She deserves at least that much from me, as I failed her in many ways. Now I spend the next few years navigating life with no family.
Will I become a happy, successful adult, or will I end up a failure and worthless like my mother always said I would…

Deserves a real person to read this excellent book

The book is excellent but the computer reader is terrible, still worth pressing ahead until the end for the story

the storyline was good but.

The storyline was good, this poor girl endured horrific abuse. however they used virtual voice for this one and if you can get past the very monotone sounding voice is a good story.

A story of true resilience

I hate to say it again, since it has already been said in every single other review… But Jessica deserves a real person reading this story. It is horrific and beautiful all at the same time. A perfect example of how truly resilient the human spirit can be. And living proof that we do not have to allow the trauma that we suffer to dictate who we become. We don’t have to stay broken. Such a strong woman to have gone through something like this and still managed to come out kicking and fighting. The virtual voice makes it sound almost like a children’s book. But if you can get through it, it is so very worth it. It’s definitely a story you will not forget.

Also, the Sword and Scale podcast brought me here.🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

Story is worth a listen, AI generated audio was emotionless.

I would have loved to hear the author read her own story, or even a narrator, but the auto-generated narration made it feel like it was reading bullet point facts. The author deserves her story to be read with a human voice, with emotion, with inflection, with life behind it. I would have given a 5 star review except the narration was lifeless. Audible, do better by your authors!

Amazing story that ends well

Even though this was performed by ai audio, it didn’t take away from the beautiful, heart wrenching story of Jessica and her sister. Highly recommend!

This book deserves to be read by a human being


The artificial voice was so bad that I had to force myself to listen to this book. The story itself is heartbreaking.
