Wow.
It’s not what I was expecting. But I really enjoyed it as much as you can a book like this. Different than anything I’ve ever read.
Side note: Julia Whalen really can narrate anything. She can make even the most ridiculous and disgusting sentences sound good. I don’t know if I would have made it through a print version.
