Thank you NetGalley and Macmillan Audio for sending this book for review consideration. All opinions are my own.
I wish that I’d had more time to listen to this audiobook so I could fully immerse myself in this book and take one chapter per day as suggested by the author, but even having listened over a few days, I thoroughly enjoyed this book. I love the format, taking things slow and really building the skill of time blocking over time. Each topic was clearly explained and I enjoyed taking the time to sit down and write as I listened along and practice as I went. I felt like all of my questions and concerns about time blocking were answered (often soon after they came to mind) and the examples were helpful for developing and adjusting how I block out my time each week.
The quality of the audiobook is great, I was able to get up to 1.75x speed and listen comfortably (note that I did still pause to do each exercise). My only critique of the audiobook format itself is that the narrator was a bit flat, so when listening for long periods of time, I found myself drifting away from the book and needing to go back to reread.
