I usually can't listen to fiction on audio, but this one pulled me in and in the rare case probably kept me more engaged than if I read the physical print. It was a recommendation 2 years ago from one of my college friends and I finally got around to reading it. I thought it was almost too depressing at times, but may be more of a reflection of the times we're living in than the book. Dark and depressing are my top genres, but I find that my tastes are leaning differently right now. Would recommend but see the CWs.
