Book description
Edward is twelve. The sky holds his family.
This isn't a story about the crash. It's about what happens after.
The silence after the roar. The weight of being the only one left.
Napolitano's prose, read by the perfect voice-warm, steady, never sentimental-makes you lean in. You hear Edward's small voice in your ear, the way he talks to the empty seat beside him. He's learning to breathe without them. To exist in a world that wants to name him a miracle, not a boy.
The audiobook holds space. Not for grand speeches, but for the quiet ache of a boy folding origami planes in his bedroom, each one a ghost. For the way he learns to say "I miss them" without breaking. For the unexpected kindness of a neighbor who doesn't offer pity, just a cup of tea and a question: What do you need today?
You'll hear the city outside his window. The bus that rattles past. The silence of a house too big for one. Napolitano doesn't rush Edward toward healing. She lets him sit with the grief, the confusion, the terrifying freedom of being unmoored. The audiobook's pacing mirrors this-slow, deliberate, like a heartbeat finding its rhythm again.
What stays with you isn't the tragedy. It's the ordinary moments that become sacred: finding a single, perfect feather on the sidewalk, the way sunlight hits a kitchen table at 3 p.m. It's the discovery that surviving isn't about forgetting. It's about learning how to carry the weight of what's gone, and still find a way to be here.
This isn't a book you finish. It's a book that stays. You'll hear Edward's voice long after the final word. You'll feel the space beside you in the car, in the quiet room. You'll remember the question he asks himself, and the quiet answer he finds: How do you live when the world has changed, but you haven't?
The audiobook makes it feel less like reading, more like listening to a friend share something tender they've carried for years. It's not about fixing the broken. It's about learning to live with the pieces. And in that space, you find your own way to breathe.

A serviceable audiobook that met basic expectations. The narration was clear if somewhat unremarkable, and the production quality was standard without any noticeable technical issues. It kept me moderately engaged during workouts but didn't leave a lasting impression. Solid performance overall though some character voices sounded too similar. I occasionally got confused about who was speaking in dialogue-heavy scenes.
