Leviathan by Scott Westerfeld My rating: 5 of 5 stars Such an incredible story! I've been meaning to read this for awhile and I finally snagged the audio book from the YA shelves at my library. The book is read by Alan Cumming, who does a great job with the voices and accents. The alternate … Continue reading YA Audio Book Review
