At first I wasn’t really feeling the audiobook of this. The narrator just wasn’t doing it for me, but the story itself I quite liked, and Eleanor grew on me a lot as a character, much like she did for everyone she met. I also thought it was going to take a much different route with her and Raymond as a romantic partnership than it did, and I actually really liked how it focused on Eleanor’s story instead, so they had a natural progression of friendship with a somewhat open end. It was overall really enjoyable.
