I was sold reading “A Jekyll and Hyde Remix” on the cover. I mean…who doesn’t love the story of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde…and then who doesn’t love retellings?
Well I personally love both and this seemed like the perfect storm of a book to read. Let me tell you -
I was correct.
This book has every single aspect we look for in the story of Jekyll and Hyde while being different enough that it felt like a new story. Some retellings stick too closely and some deviate too far from the original to really satisfy me as a reader but this one was a perfect storm.
On top of the story, the narrator for the audiobook is exactly what you would expect for a Jekyll and Hyde story. Creepy without being over the top. No complaints.
Thanks to NetGalley for the audiobook!
