​Testimonials & Reviews

Jules Adrienn
Author of ​Ava the Brave

Working with Shaina was great. She turned Ava the Brave  from a spoken word piece into a complete emotional and physical experience. My advice is to book her now-finding a voice talent this good is a rare and wondrous thing. 

Dana Fraedrich
Author of ​Into the Fire and ​Across the Ice

Shaina did a spectacular job bringing the audio versions of my books to life. Her voicing was spot on for the book's tone and each character, and she came up with some fantastically clever solutions for things in the text that don't translate directly into audio.

Ms. Summerville’s performance is one full of energy and life. She brings out the youth and personalities of the characters perfectly. Some of her voice work is incredibly strong. . .  She keeps the pacing good for the story throughout, however, keeping listeners engrossed.

Mixed with the smooth narration of Shaina Summerville, this was all around a great read/listen. Definitely check this one out if you like…well…any genre really!
