While this was well written, I found the pace so slow that at times I was bored. I listened to this, and partly I think that means I didn't enjoy it as much as I might have had I read it (always a risk with audio I find). I think it also didn't grip me just because it was so clearly in the voice of an older person, and perhaps I just found that difficult to relate to in the same way I would with someone younger.
