I'll finish this eventually; it's just dense. Very interesting and enjoyable though—but when I have time for it.

I began listening to it when I had a concussion and at first I was very engaged. But a few episodes in, it became clear that there were multiple writers working on it because not ever episode had consistently as enjoyable writing. By episode six I was kind of slogging through it out of obligation—all of the characters incredibly predictable. In episode 9 I decided to just stop feeling guilty for not finishing / wasting time with this book/audio play. I realized I wasn't having fun with it anymore.
