This is not the sort of book I would have chosen to read myself, but I was listening to it with my mum, and enjoyed it more than I thought I would. I also thought that I would be irritated with the split POV, since it switches between first and third between chapters (or groups of chapters), but did not mind at all, and it was a nice surprise, given I've found this off-putting before.

I was sad that it didn't turn out to be as what I thought (I thought, given the emphasis on clocks, and time being a bit weird, that there would maybe time travel hijinks or reincarnation or something, but that was not the case).

I did, however, correctly guess
