Quotes
“Jenna Lamia delivers another outstanding understated, yet absolutely riveting performance in The Adoration of Jenna Fox.” —5MinutesForBooks.com
“Narrator Jenna Lamia excels at evoking the haunting, yet detached way that Jenna begins to connect the events in her life.

“It's hard to imagine any reader doing as fine a job with this audio as Lamia. Her vocal tone is faultless throughout, whether she is self-reflecting or interacting with the other impeccably voiced characters. There were moments during the sometimes-chilling narration when it was quite literally breathtaking. Jenna is believably torn, confused, angry, and cautiously hopeful during her recovery, growth and ultimate shocking realization of the truth about her accident and the subsequent steps her parents took to save her. The bonus interview with the author is as engaging and though provoking as Jenna Fox's story. Ideal for book discussions and group listening.” —KLIATT, Starred Review
“...Lamia becomes the transparent agent of Jenna's story: she leads the listener along that path by keeping her voice continually in the now, her nuanced, authentic teen inflection reflecting Jenna's newly won proficiency with language and her gradual decoding of the emotions and motives of her limited circle of family and friends. Lamia holds the rare gift of communicating not only the words on the page but also the punctuation and white space, infusing all with emotion. Listeners are taken beyond the book by the inclusion of a bonus interview with Pearson, which provides the gripping description of the author's driving force behind the writing.” —Horn Book Magazine
