I don't think the audiobook is the one for this one! The narrators' voices didn't match the characters in my head, and it was doubly jarring when the perspective shifts and one narrator is doing the voice of another.

Then, I'm very anti spoilers so all I will say is don't read this book if you're currently watching The West Wing or plan to read Stephen King's Misery. I even skipped some parts to avoid further spoilers so don't know the extent reached re the latter reference. But that's me — I'm sure a bunch of people won't mind!

I also felt there were a lot of unnecessary sexist commentary lobbed in...

I also didn't really believe/get invested in the main relationship. The narrator choices probably played into this a lot.

Still, there were moments of intrigue and tension and I remained curious as to how it was all going to end!
