The One Hundred Years of Lenni and Margot Audiobook Review

Two women at very different ages make a century of memories together inside a hospital.

A little more about the listen

Lenni and Margot respond to limited time by making a life larger through stories, friendship, and deliberate memory. It is a natural companion to The Midnight Library for listeners who want the emotional question to stay grounded in the people we leave behind.

The listening experience

Sheila Reid and Rebecca Benson give the two perspectives a clear, companionable contrast, helping the friendship feel lived rather than manufactured.

Best for

Listeners who want a tender, friendship-led story about mortality and meaning.

The honest note

This is an emotionally direct book about illness and death; it may be too raw for some listeners at the wrong moment.

Worth the credit?

Worth considering for listeners who want a tender, friendship-led story about mortality and meaning. The honest note is the deciding reservation to weigh before spending a credit: This is an emotionally direct book about illness and death; it may be too raw for some listeners at the wrong moment.
