More than a 3 (it's a book and i read it) but less than a 4 (a book i would consider reading again and/ or definitely recommend others read)

At this point in my life, i appreciated the message

It was narrated very slowly - even at a higher speed, the narrator spoke at a natural speed. Whilst it matched the tone of the book, this may not suit everyone

I didn't know what to expect, but I'm amazed by this concept. I wish I read it instead of listened just to have more time to reflect on everything. Instead I just had to have quiet time after every couple chapters in the car. But it's a heavy subject with a hopeful twist and definitely a reread.
