The Night Swim by Megan Goldin
5.0

Part court room drama, part Nancy Drew-esque mystery solving, The Night Swim gave me so many different types of storytelling that I continuously wanted to keep reading and listening (I had both audiobook and e-reader versions). I also really enjoyed the Podcast segments that truly brought a different medium to the writing. 

While listening to the audiobook, my only issue was the narrator choice. She was quite monotone and didn’t help me differentiate between the characters in the story. I did enjoy the podcast moments though with the theme music added in. 

The whodunit element of The Night Swim was perfectly written and the mystery leading to the reveal was not too slow that the story felt like it was lagging. I am very happy to say this is a 5 star read for me!
