Disclaimer: I listened to this one on audio at 2X speed and while I can sometimes do books at 2.75X or 3X, I struggled with the Irish accent and while driving and the background noise, I was confused at times. Lucky for me the story moved so slow that I didn’t miss much. Or did I?  The time line jumped. Characters were annoying. I feel there are people who would love this type of diary narrative fiction but ultimately I was like, what just happened. Why was the end dissatisfying?  What did I miss?
