The Dead Take the A Train by Richard Kadrey, Cassandra Khaw
3.0
Thanks to MacMillan Audio and NetGalley for this ALC!
I requested an ALC of this audiobook after seeing lots of hype about it across socials, and I tell you what, it was definitely a wild ride. And a gross one! On the whole, I enjoyed the narrator's work, though I felt some of the line reads (especially for Sarah) came across a bit more "damsel in distress" than the character and writing warranted. But I really enjoyed her work in making each character stand out within the narration. The story itself was quite sprawling, and I admit I did lose the plot a couple of times. But it was still fun to listen along, and I'm sure I'll check out the sequel someday!
