I get living a sheltered life in academia during her entire adult life would give her a skewed view of some things but it was a bit much for me and I wasn’t able to have much empathy at all for Grace. Nearly 30 isn’t a young adult and that was frustrating for me. Our protagonist is 28 at the beginning of the book and 29 at the end but this really felt like a YA book. Mature vocabulary, well constructed sentences, and I assume proper editing made it possible to focus completely on the story being told. I accidentally bumped it up to 1.25% on the speed and it was much better but still not great. The narrator has a lovely voice but the telling of the story was slow and plodding and sometimes difficult to figure out who was talking during conversations. Going to jot down just a few things about this book.įirst, I recommend a non-audio version if possible.
