Julia Whelan passionately narrates this family drama focused on a model and surfer named Nina, and her estranged rock legend father. Host Jo Reed and AudioFile’s Michele Cobb talk about how, as with any good family story, there are secrets to hide and reveal in this audiobook. The story alternates between the events of a day in August 1983 that lead up to a party, and flashbacks that recount how Nina and her siblings became so emotionally dependent on one another. Whelan’s distinct voice for each briefly glimpsed character enhances the rich details of Taylor Jenkins Reid’s story. Read the full review of the audiobook on AudioFile’s website.
