YOU WEREN'T MEANT TO BE HUMAN

Horror in the form of an alien invasion and a bug infestation is compelling and dramatic in this audiobook, and Max Meyers does an excellent job of narrating without overdoing it. Their tone and pacing allow the suspense to build naturally, even during frequent scenes of horror. Their voices are appropriately differentiated as they deliver dialogue and action, and they navigate the complex issues of identity, transformation, and survival with finesse. Crane, the protagonist, chooses to use an alien invasion as an opportunity to transition to male gender, but when he gets pregnant, his situation is threatened. This new audiobook by award-winning author Andrew Joseph White brings its characters to life. C.F. © AudioFile 2025, Portland, Maine [Published: OCTOBER 2025]
