I don't know if it's the audiobooks I listened to, or reading a novel I've far outgrown, but I just struggled to retain the content of this book. It seemed to literally go in one ear and out the other. I don't think it's a fault of the novel itself, per se, but it didn't work for me. I'll probably try the next book in the series via physical copy instead of audiobook and see if it clicks (if not, I'll probably chalk it up to being a novel for a much younger audience!).
