THIS IS HOW WE FLY

Kyla Garcia narrates a contemporary teen audiobook about a teen's last few months before heading to college. After Ellen is grounded for the summer, her only reprieve is joining one of her best friends in her new hobby--playing Quidditch, the full-contact, all-gender game Harry Potter inspired. Garcia perfectly portrays Ellen, infusing her with the right amount of teenage snark and angst. Additionally, Garcia deftly vocalizes both the personalities and origins of the diverse cast of characters. Whether it's Ellen's excitement at Quidditch matches, her frustration at arguing with her stepmother, or her hurt at a lack of support from family and friends, Garcia captures the story's emotions and shares them with listeners.
