- C: the characters were super adorable and diverse, i liked how they were described, i didn' really felt connected though & i personally don't really vibe with linus
- W: some feelings and situations felt over-explained, sometimes it left way too hopeful und overly positive, especially towards the end i sometimes cringed at some of the dialogues and writing
- P: the second half the story kinda dragged on, the over all outcome was very foreseeable
- I: at first, i couldn't put it down and towards the end the only motivation to read was to get this book done.
- E: in the beginning i really enjoyed it, was alright over all, glad that i read it, wouldn't read again

I listened to the book. At first I had to get used to the voice actor but having finished the book I think he's a good fit for the protagonist and also has distinct voices for the cast of characters. He did a good job. What sometimes threw me off was how he pronounced certain words. I don't know if that is some kind of accent but I never had heard them pronounced that way. It made it appear as if he has never encountered these words before and didn't bother to check the pronunciation.
