★★★★★ Solid, with a few slow patches

Strong voice and great atmosphere, though the middle drags a little. Still glad I read it.

★★★☆☆ A gift to give

Bought a copy for my sister and one for myself. We've been texting about it all week.

A thoughtful, well-crafted audiobook. The last third is the best thing I've read this year.
