Beautifully written & told, technical issues aside

SZ (Hammer) is an amazing writer. While she's smarter than all of us (but won't admit it), her writing doesn't talk down to the reader. It's very true, very stark, and very human.

The narrator does a fantastic job of portraying the seriousness and absolute insanity of everything that's happening.

That all said, there are a couple of technical issues with the audiobook. There are a few times where sentences or sections are repeated and it pulls you out of what's happening for a moment.
