I liked it, but didn’t love it - many of us frequently say that in our reviews. I know I’ve said it enough. Sometimes that’s hard to adequately explain.

I have a copy from NetGalley but decided to have another try at him narrating his own work after not caring for his reading of his previous book. And, sorry, I still say he does not have the voice or the tone or the proper enunciation for voice overs and am giving up after 2 chapters. Please hire someone more pleasant to listen to. This voice over is agonizing.
In the meantime, I'll keep this on my NetGalley shelf to read but I am afraid I'm in no hurry for it now as the story also seemed difficu ...more
