The audiobook is definitely the way to go with this one. I don’t think I would have enjoyed the formatting otherwise.
This book is phenomenal. The author is really good at creating characters that feel real. The Six feels like a real band. These relationships, these hardships… There is also an empathetic and responsible approach to some very dark themes.
However, I disliked the part with the infamous Italian character. It came out of nowhere and ended abruptly. It could have been left out. The resolution could have happened without it. I also disliked that ending. It felt like a cop out.
