This was really engaging as an audiobook - the jingle that plays before each podcast episode does a great job of separating you from Lucy’s POV and putting you in the position of being just another one of Ben’s podcast listeners. 

There were definitely some times that Lucy’s character annoyed me and I didn’t agree with every decision she made, but overall she was an enjoyable and intriguing character that kept me wondering whether she actually did it. I’m not sure why the men of Plumpton are all so angry and entitled, on the other hand - yet treated like Jesus reborn. 

I was satisfied with the reveal which had many opportunities to be disappointing. 

Voice acting was phenomenal for how many characters/podcast guests there were. Each individual had a distinct voice and personality.
