An experiment into trying audiobooks as something for me. It was pretty successful. The book was rather good too. Maybe I'm taking it too literally but as a dark comedy about a guy waking up as an insect and going "oh dear I'm a giant bug. Better go to work" whilst everyone around him goes "aaahhhhhh giant bug" it was both quite funny and also sad. It did not overstay its welcome or push too hard. A solid read.
