NOS4A2 is one of my favorite books of all time, so i had high expectations going into this one. His characters are so multilayered and flawed, I felt for Jude and Marybeth so deeply. I even laughed a few times. It felt a little predictable but I didn’t mind too much because there’s a feeling of dread building throughout. The ending feels inevitable. Also loved what Jude’s dogs added to the story 🥹. It’s a dark story but I loved the character development and writing.
Can we talk about this audiobook though? and thank god we’ve moved away from the music added in for some of the transitions 🤣 I actually jumped a few times when the music came on when I wasn’t expecting it.
