"I'm surprised I made it this far. Listening to this Audible title and I find myself wondering if I'd enjoy it better if I read it instead. The narrator isn't helping me get into the story. Something about the way she reads reminds me of listening to a child who just learned to read. There's no cadence, no emotion, no energy. It's going to require a boat load of patience to get me through this book. Hope it's worth it" — 21 hours, 25 min ago
