It was fine. Just... fine.

I listened to it as an audiobook and it was a little more difficult to follow than I imagine it was in print? It kept re-reading the list of names and starting the chapter numbers over from one, it took me about two thirds of the book to realize it might have names struck through that the narrator wasn't identifying as such. It was also a little hard to keep track of the threads as an audiobook.

The Jay chapters in particular were really jarring to hear aloud like that. I was not prepared. 

I feel like I probably should have just reread And Then There Were None.
