This book was just as good as the others. I listened to it completely on audiobook as I was busy completing other tasks. It was great background and I loved the song in it at the chapter breaks. Tim Curry does a great job narrating. 

Quotes: 
“Well read people are less likely to be evil

I think everybody’s parents have secrets you just have to know where to look for them. 

Everyone should keep a few secrets 

The world is quiet here”
