The Loneliest Girl in the Universe
“Lauren Ezzo’s emotionally charged narration…lets Romy’s mercurial moods infect the listener—the pain of her losses, the quickened speech and desperate whine of her occasional panic in the vastness of space, and the sweet glee of a girl getting to know a boy. As complications arise, Ezzo rockets toward the heart-stopping conclusion. Winner of the AudioFile Earphones Award.”
