4.25

I listened to the audiobook version and I have to say that Diveen Henry’s performance takes the book from a 3.5 to a 4.25. For example, sometimes I would read along with the book and feel confused about dialogue. Matheson’s sense of character voice is STRONG, don’t get me wrong, but it can be difficult to parse through who is saying what. Henry’s distinct characterizations and the consistency with which she delivers each and every voice were crucial in my ability to comprehend the plot and maintain interest.
