Got an eArc from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

I seldom read audiobook editions because the narrating way of some books isn't clicking for me, and I can't keep my focus on the story. However, This Is Why They Hate Us by Aaron H. Aceves is one of the few audiobooks I adore. I love the writing style, and Alejandro Ruiz did a great job narrating the book. Alejandro had me focused on listening. Aaron H. Aceves's writing and Alejandro Ruiz's narration made it perfect for a reader like me. This book had me laughing and cringing (in a good way) because of the main character's POV.

Though, I still have mixed feelings about how things ended up. So, I'll let this be an unfinished review because I need to read various reviews of this book to know if I wasn't the only one with mixed feelings.
