This was a really unique story and narration. I loved the atmosphere of the book and the narrator helped a lot with that too. She blew it away. For me, she is the best narrator this year of the books I have listened to. Each character had their own voice and she really lived the characters and the story. I will definitely remember her. I will also remember the author. She did a good job too.
But there was only one thing that didn't convince me. The age of the protagonist. It cannot be that a 30 year old woman thinks and acts the way she did. In my head she was 20 years old and so I could enjoy her and the story. I mean, I like her. She's also a unique protagonist, but it wasn't really believable that she was 30 years old and it wasn't really necessary to mention the age at all.
But in general I would recommend this story, just ignore the age of the characters.
